About us

Three generations of the Vallosio family committed to quality

Manifatture Vallosio was founded on 18 July 1950 thanks to the intuition of its founder, Alfonso Vallosio, and to the long tradition of leather working in the Upper Orco Valley.

A family story

    The beginning

    Building on the long tradition of the Upper Orco Valley, Alfonso Vallosio starts painting leather together with a few employees.

    Clelia and Giovanni

    After the founder’s early death, the company is taken over by his wife Clelia and his eldest son Giovanni.

Today

Experience, training, raw materials

Over the years the company has always invested in staff training, reaching excellent levels of experience and professionalism supported by state-of-the-art machinery and techniques. It has invested heavily in sourcing high-quality raw materials and has optimised its production cycle to meet any kind of request.

In Italy the company regularly supplies visors, chinstraps, sweatbands and, when needed, any other accessory for civilian and military caps. It also has good partnerships in Africa and Europe: every sample sent and examined abroad has received excellent feedback for its quality and technical features.

Manifatture Vallosio is always ready to meet any request for samples of the items it produces, confident that it can meet any need quickly.
