PAIO stands for a 'pair' in Italian. The company was founded with one simple thought - crafted creativity - and has ever since had one objective: to offer its customers handcrafted 'one of a kind' shoes unique to their spirit while leading the way to becoming a conscious leather-free vegan brand. With generations of expertise in the art of design, ALL our PAIO shoes are handcrafted - right from design development; material selection to pattern making and shoe lasting and finishing.
