What to know about Scarosso
Le Marche makers, direct pricing
Shoes are handmade in family-run workshops around Montegranaro, then sold direct-to-consumer, which is how the label lands below the usual Italian-made price.
Blake stitching, classic shapes
The range runs on Blake-stitched construction and restrained Italian classicism: penny loafers, double monks, derbies, Chelsea boots, plus made-to-order customization.
Collaborations break the restraint
Alongside the quiet core, Scarosso has worked with Brooks Brothers at Pitti Uomo, Seletti's Toilet Paper on printed loafers, and Nick Wooster and Paula Cademartori.
How Scarosso fits
Overall fit
true to size
Most buyers find Scarosso footwear runs true to size with a typical sleek Italian last that can feel snug for wider feet, and leather soles need a short break-in.
Tip: Order your usual EU size; if between sizes or wide-footed, size up a half.

| Boots | true to size | medium width, snug through the instep | Stick to your usual size for Chelsea boots; expect a brief leather break-in. |
| Dress shoes | true to size | medium to slightly narrow last with a refined toe box | Take your normal EU size; wide feet should consider a half size up as the loafers and monks run sleek. |
