More than just the name of a footwear brand, Franco Sarto is the man behind the footwear designs themselves.  Born in 1949 in Dolo, a small town outside of Venice, Italy, Sarto's passion struck early. He began his career in footwear at the age of 14, carefully handcrafting shoes in the outskirts of Venice.  Now a revered and respected industry leader, Franco continues to feed his passion by designing beautiful shoes that bring women joy.

While the technician in him continually pushes to make shoes as comfortable as possible, the other side of Franco Sarto lives for fashion. He understands a woman's undying passion for shoes and is dedicated to keeping that passion alive by crafting beautiful shoes that bring joy to women around the world.
