Our Story
Founder: Arno Conti
Introduction:
Founded in 1983 from a small shop on Ning Po Street, Jordan, Hong Kong, ARNO CONTI began with a simple belief: great shoes should look refined, feel comfortable, and last.
Over the decades, the brand has evolved into a global online destination for footwear lovers who appreciate design and craftsmanship.
Founder's Story:
Arno Conti—an Italian-born shoemaker—brought his passion for traditional shoemaking to Hong Kong, blending Italian craft with the energy and aesthetics of the Orient. That meeting of cultures shaped the signature ARNO CONTI style: elegant lines, confident silhouettes, and details that feel special without trying too hard.
Today, ARNO CONTI reaches beyond borders, sharing this unique approach to craftsmanship and design with customers worldwide.
Traditional Craftsmanship Meets Modern Design
Every pair is made with time-honored shoemaking techniques and the hands-on care of experienced artisans. From material selection to finishing, we focus on precision, balance, and wearability—so each style looks polished and feels right from the first step.
What Makes ARNO CONTI Different
ARNO CONTI is loved for a look that stands out—clean, elegant, and unmistakably refined. Using carefully selected leather materials and a multi-step crafting process, our shoes are designed to be beautiful, comfortable, and durable—made to move with you from day to night.
