di San Giacomo: Styled And Made In Rome
In the heart of the eternal city, just minutes from the vibrant Piazza Navona you will find di San Giacomo. The warm atmosphere of the shop is inviting and calls customers to explore its whimsical interior.
With limited edition items like sandals, ballet flats, belts and bags and customisable products tailored to individual preferences, di San Giacomo is an 100% Roman brand.
Elegant Sandals
Sandals are perhaps the most known and popular item created by di San Giacomo. A timeless, always-in-style and feminine choice for warm days, sandals are the perfect summer shoe that can be styled in various ways and complement an outfit. The store offers a selection of simplistic as well as more styled pieces with patterns or jewels for any taste. For the creative ones seeking to personalise their sandals even more, there is the opportunity to request customization.
Another accessory that can complement and elevate a look is a good belt. Bold colours and eclectic designs are a di San Giacomo-favourite, all designed and handcrafted in Rome.
Although we love the femininity of a high heel, ballet flats have come to present a more comfortable solution. A French-girl staple piece, ballet flats have been redesigned at this eclectic store which has its own view of the item. Using Italian leathers with customisable heels, ballet flats are there for when sandals cannot be worn.
di San Giacomo identity
The main philosophy of the brand is its Italian essence. As a store born in Rome, all products are handmade in the city. This provides customers with a unique experience and selected pieces that cannot be found in massive or popular brands. Selling at prices below 100 euros, they are an affordable solution for tourists who want to take something home. An ideal store for small-scale fashion item lovers and people who want to contribute to the making of their shoes through customising it. Made to stand out and provide a Cinderella-like feeling.
