Truman’s

Founded in the 1950s in the heart of the renowned Riviera del Brenta, just a few kilometers from Venice, Truman’s shoes represents the excellence of Italian shoemaking, combining tradition, innovation, and passion. Born in a region famous for its artisanal footwear, the brand quickly gained recognition for uncompromising quality and refined style. In 1983, entrepreneur Giovanni Mazzarolo, an expert in the footwear industry, acquired Truman’s together with Strafford, two brands already respected for their craftsmanship and unique design. Today, Truman’s is still a proud family business, led by Giovanni’s children—Simone, Giulio, Roberto, Davide, and Elisa—who continue to nurture and grow the company’s artisanal legacy with dedication and vision.
