Our History
The beginning of a love: me and the gloves
“It was a click. We met: me and the gloves.”
This is how Giorgio Sermoneta describes the beginning of a passion that, in the 1960s, would revolutionize the world of Italian handcrafted gloves.
In an era when gloves were only black or white and served to protect from the cold, Giorgio imagined something different: an accessory capable of expressing the personality and style of the wearer.
A true lover of color, he had the leather dyed according to the shades of colored pencils. This resulted in gloves in shocking pink , royal blue , emerald green , and lemon yellow —hues that transformed a traditional garment into a symbol of fashion, elegance, and identity.
It was the beginning of the story of Sermoneta Gloves , a brand destined to become an icon of Made in Italy luxury .
From the hands of the craftsman to the hands of the world
The first Sermoneta artisan workshop opened in the heart of Rome , in Piazza di Spagna , a symbolic place of Italian beauty and elegance.
Here, the hands of master glovemakers worked fine leathers with traditional techniques handed down for generations, cutting and sewing each model entirely by hand.
Each Sermoneta glove is born from a perfect balance between luxury craftsmanship and contemporary design .
Every seam, every cut, every detail speaks of the passion and precision typical of Made in Italy , a guarantee of quality and timeless style.
Since then, the philosophy has remained the same: to create unique gloves, capable of combining tradition and innovation, craftsmanship and fashion, comfort and personality.
The glove as an expression of style
A Sermoneta glove is not just an accessory: it is a gesture of elegance, a distinctive sign of refinement. Each model is designed to fit perfectly in the hand, respecting its shape and movement, just like a tailored suit. Giorgio Sermoneta possessed a rare gift: a glance was enough to recognize the perfect size of a glove. For him, every hand told a story, and every glove had to be its natural extension. From this vision comes the founding principle of the brand: every hand deserves the perfect glove . Today, those who choose Sermoneta Gloves choose an authentic, elegant, and carefully crafted product. A symbol of Italian style recognized worldwide, beloved by celebrities and those seeking a truly unique Made in Italy accessory .
