These high tops from Belvedere Shoes are inspired in Italy, where the founder of the company was raised. Featuring a calf leather upper and leather lining, the sneakers are comfortable, and will mold to your feet even better over time. The cushioned insole and rubber sole provide support, while the high-top design helps secure your ankles for longer treks.
Stefano Giovacchini, called the “Gator Man” by those who know him, started making shoes in 1986. Taking inspiration from tanneries and shoe factories in his hometown of Florence, Italy, he grew his business from humble beginnings in his California garage to sitting on the shelves of Nordstrom and beyond. Once the business was large enough, he needed a catchy name for it. Naturally, he looked to his past for a suitable moniker: “Belvedere Shoes,” named after Fort Belvedere in the Italian countryside of his upbringing. Even more fitting, the term means “a beautiful sight” in Italian, not unlike the shoes he’s been known to create.
