Saskia Wittmer

Italian art and German comfort

Saskia Wittmer left Germany at a very early age to start enchanting Italian gentlemen in her own way: by creating beautiful handmade bespoke shoes.
Born in Berlin, she is possibly one of the few women-shoemakers in Europe, undoubtedly one of the best.
In her Florentine atelier, she has been carrying forward her work, with passion and enthusiasm, for years, taking care of each step involving production. From measure- taking to leather- selecting, from sewing to final polishing, she relies on Italian shapes, British technique and German functionality.
Saskia is convinced that a pair of bespoke shoes should not be made for good walks only but also for good living, as long as they can reflect the wearer’s personality.
