Officine Creative is an Italian footwear brand based in Montegranaro, Italy, established in 1968. The company produces shoes that incorporate both traditional shoemaking methods and modern design features. Officine Creative operates a workshop in the Marche region known for artisanal leatherwork.
Officine Creative was founded by Nazzareno Di Rosa in 1968 in Montegranaro. The business started as a small workshop focused on leather craftsmanship typical of the region. In the 1990s, the company began developing new shoemaking methods that incorporated both traditional and creative techniques. Nazzareno Di Rosa’s sons, Roberto and Luca Di Rosa, currently lead Officine Creative and manage its operations in Montegranaro.
Production at Officine Creative involves a multi-step process carried out by skilled artisans. Each pair of shoes is subjected to hand-executed techniques, including washing and object dyeing. These processes result in a distinct patina on the finished footwear. The workshop, located in Montegranaro, manages all phases of production.
Officine Creative sources leathers from established tanneries in Italy. The company uses a piece-dyeing method that changes the color and texture of each shoe. Footwear construction often features designs that are more flexible and lightweight than traditional models. Artisans oversee material selection and assembly.
Officine Creative produces men’s and women’s footwear, including boots, loafers, oxfords, and sandals. The product range frequently updates to reflect seasonal changes in fashion. Some models reinterpret classic shoe designs by adding modern textures or visual details. The collections maintain consistent design themes with periodic updates.
