Overview

POLPETTA is a footwear brand founded in Japan in 2013. Created by its founder and designer, Gakuto Yamazaki, the brand offers shoes centered on slip-ons. The brand name means “dumpling” in Italian, and its icon is a knot used by Italian fishermen to form a rounded bundle at the end of a rope. Its official concept is “fantasy shoes full of playful spirit for adults, with the feet as the focal point.” In addition to the PASSO series, which uses the Bolognese construction method, the brand also offers bags and leather accessories.

An official series launched by POLPETTA in 2016, it uses Bolognese construction and emphasizes comfort and quality. In contrast to the brand’s offerings, which began with a focus on slip-ons, PASSO is characterized by a close fit that wraps around the foot and a flexible sole, and is developed as a line of shoes designed for comfortable everyday wear. It remains part of the product range on the official website and continues to be offered within the brand.
