Salvatore Capezio, born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy, chose a different path from his father's career as a construction engineer. He pursued his passion as a cobbler and opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street in New York City at the age of 17. Dancers frequented his shop to discuss their needs and purchase his shoes, leading to Capezio's global popularity.

The innovative products created by Salvatore Capezio and his close relationship with dancers shaped the company's trajectory. The Capezio brand was established to celebrate dance achievements and participation. Capezio products continue to lead in quality and technological advancements, introducing innovations like the split-sole, stretch-insert, Dansneaker, and Tapsneaker.

Capezio values the commitment of each customer to set new standards in creativity and performance while upholding a reputation for reliability and excellence. The company is dedicated to supporting the advancement of dance, theater, and recreation worldwide.
