The origins of Calvano trace back to the 1980s, when a passionate Turkish shoemaker laid the foundation for what would become a respected name in the footwear industry. Founded by the Yağcı family’s father, the brand started as a small workshop dedicated to crafting high-quality leather shoes with a focus on timeless design and superior craftsmanship.
Growing up surrounded by the art of shoemaking, brothers Süleyman Yağcı and Ali Yağcı inherited both their father’s skills and his entrepreneurial spirit. In 2010, they took the bold step of expanding the family business beyond Turkey’s borders. Driven by a commitment to quality and innovation, they introduced Calvano to international markets, starting with exports to Europe, the UK, Australia, and Russia.
In 2014, the brothers officially founded Calvano as a brand in South Africa, blending decades of family shoemaking tradition with modern styles tailored for global tastes. Today, Calvano continues to grow as a symbol of refined craftsmanship, offering footwear that bridges tradition with contemporary elegance.
