Doucal's for man
The story of Doucal's, the renowned shoe brand that has become a symbol of timeless Italian craftsmanship, is a journey that began in the late 1960s, in the heart of the Marche region of Italy, an area known for its rich shoemaking tradition. At the time, the brand's founder, Mario Giannini, was a young man with a deep passion for shoes. With relentless dedication and an unwavering commitment to quality, he started crafting his first pairs of shoes for an aristocratic clientele under the brand name, Ducale. After word of his talent quickly spread, soon the brand attracted the attention of the most discerning customers and what was once a small workshop transformed into a flourishing company. The brand’s name then changed to Doucal’s – a more English-sounding version of the name – to reflect the founder’s appreciation for the quality and craftsmanship of British shoes.
Today, more than four decades since its inception, Doucal's produces styles such as classic loafers and derbies to modern sneakers and boots, with many of the brand’s iconic designs available on TheCorner.com.
