Founded in 1988 by Rocco Mascitelli, Brando Shoes bridges the gap between Australian design sensibility and traditional Italian craftsmanship. Mascitelli, who spent years immersed in the shoemaking culture of Italy’s Marche region, established the brand to bring artisanal European quality to the Australian market. The name itself—playing on the Italian word for "sword" or "to brandish"—reflects a desire to create footwear that acts as a distinctive signature for the wearer.
