gallo

Founded in Milan in 1927, Gallo is a heritage brand that transformed the humble sock into an icon of Italian style. Initially producing classic, durable hosiery, the company was steered in a revolutionary direction in the 1990s by Giuseppe Colombo, son of Ambrogio Colombo who had acquired the brand post-war. Giuseppe injected a vibrant, playful spirit into the collections, introducing the multicolored stripes and bold patterns that would become Gallo’s signature. This pivot transformed socks from a mere necessity into a distinctive fashion statement, an impulse buy for those seeking to express personality.
