Where thoughtful design meets sustainable craftsmanship. Handmade in Italy.
About us
Our journey began in 2014, with a mission to create our personal dream shoe, one that would accompany us on any quest and adapt to any situation. So we went straight to the source—the heart of Italy—where craftspeople have been perfecting the art of handmade shoes for hundreds of years. We were thorough. We visited 34 factories before we found the one that mirrored our vision for Koio, in the gorgeous coastal village of Civitanova. What emerged from this partnership were shoes that truly fused the artistry of luxury with the ready-for-anything ethos of modern city life. We knew the shoes would speak to a generation of people who recognized the distinction between quality and excess, and that—like us—eschewed traditional paths in favor of forging their own. Constructed with the finest calf-skin leathers and hand-finished with unrivaled attention to detail, Koio products truly embody the spirit of their inception: they are ready for any journey—whether it’s the streets of a foreign city or an unexplored road home.

Going Regenerative Our mission is simple yet monumental: craft a shoe that emerges from the earth and gracefully returns to it. Why does it matter where shoes come from and where they go? Because when our shoes are sourced from regenerative farms and biodegrade into the soil, we're not just making footwear; we're nurturing ecosystems, reversing carbon emissions, and producing goods in sync with nature. Our journey isn't one giant leap but a series of interlinked innovations. In year one, we introduced regenerative leather. In year two, we achieved 99% biodegradability. And now, in our latest triumph, we've unlocked a tanning method offering endless color possibilities. Each innovation brings us closer to solving the puzzle of preserving our precious planet. But we can't do it alone. Your support is essential. Wear your Koio Regenerative shoes proudly. Share our vision with friends. Together, step by step, we'll pave the way to a revolutionary future where our practices seamlessly integrate with Earth's biological cycles. Happy Earth Day, every day.

And the last one for the #EarthMonth series! Talking about carbon emission reduction strategies with companies and experts. The issues with carbon emission reductions is that the process doesn't look the same for every brand. Depending on the brand size and supply chain complexity, different areas of the business might need to be adressed, like shipping, or nearshoring. I spoke to Katina Boutis of Everlane, Mads Fibiger Rasmussen and Alexander Christiansen of Organic Basics, Subset CEO Cayla O'Connell Davis, Johannes Quodt of Koio, Vanessa Barboni Hallik of Another Tomorrow and Austin Whitman of the The Change Climate Project about the carbon emission question. You can check out more of the cross-industry Glossy Earth Month series on the site. https://lnkd.in/eyTWS58v Glossy
