Martiniano Lopez Crozet, the designer and founder, introduced his inaugural collection in February 2012 under the Martiniano label. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The brand is recognized for its commitment to traditional craftsmanship and exceptional comfort. All Martiniano footwear is crafted from kid leather that is dyed with aniline, providing a soft and natural feel. The aesthetic of Martiniano is focused on simplicity, austerity, and subtle elegance, where the minor quirks and irregularities that emerge from the inherent properties of the material and the artistry are celebrated as vital to the distinctiveness of each item.
