OUR THREE PRODUCT BRANDS. EACH IN A CLASS OF ITS OWN.
legero offers casual women’s shoes in a modern look and timeless design for every occasion. Lightness, together with sustainability, is one of the most essential criteria in the design and manufacture of each model. Target weights are defined from the initial sketch to develop the lightest shoe possible. Innovative technologies, carefully selected materials such as delicate leathers or airy textiles, a design with optimal cushioning properties and well-thought-out functions guarantee our female customers the incomparably light legero wearing sensation.
