The business is based in the city of São João da Madeira, which is widely known for its deep-rooted tradition in the shoemaking industry. All products manufactured by Tatuaggi “uphold a distinctive fashion pattern developed throughout fifteen years of activity. The brand’s concept and design mirror the self-concept of a wide variety of consumers, conveying an image they easily identify with”.

With a total of approximately 220 employees and three combined production units, Tatuaggi has a daily production capacity of about 2 000 pairs. The company produces shoes under their own brand (Tatuaggi) and also for private label collections.

According to the brand’s own words, Tatuaggi, which literally means tattoos, was the chosen name as “just like a tattoo, a pair of shoes can represent one’s identity. Rather than being an additional piece of clothing, it consists of an ornamental fashion accessory which discloses much about the character and personality of the lady who wears it”.
