About Berluti

Berluti, a unique men's Maison within the LVMH Group, was founded in Paris in 1895. Over four successive generations of the Berluti family, it has cultivated an art of excellence and savoir-faire in shoemaking, while developing a passion for leather and patina. In 2005, the Maison launched its leather goods collection, followed by a ready-to-wear collection in 2011.

Today, the ready-to-wear and bespoke clothing and shoe collections, along with a wide range of accessories, offer an innovative lifestyle experience while remaining true to the Berluti spirit. Attention to detail and adherence to cutting and assembly rules are the cornerstones of the Maison's savoir-faire.

Berluti is currently present in over 25 countries, with 65 own stores and a highly selective network of external distributors.
