About
POLPETTA
POLPETTA means "meatball" in Italian. The name originates from the shape that Italian fishermen used to tie the ends of ropes, resembling a beautifully rounded ball and this shape has become the brand's icon.
The concept of POLPETTA is "fantasy shoes for adults, filled with a playful spirit that puts your feet in the spotlight." It adds personality and playfulness to everyday outfits, offering a new style of footwear. While focusing on simple yet functional designs, POLPETTA provides shoes that enhance the individuality of the wearer.
PASSO Series
In Italian, "PASSO" means "step" or "stride." This word embodies the idea of taking a light and positive step toward an optimistic lifestyle. To express this positive step, we launched the PASSO series.
LEATHER GOODS
POLPETTA's leather goods are based on "simplicity" and "functionality," crafted from carefully selected materials. We aim for these items to be a supportive partner in the owner's daily life. Our goal is to deliver a special piece that, by being cherished over time, becomes a part of the owner's personal story.
