The story of the Portolano brand is a remarkable journey of craftsmanship and family legacy that began in Naples back in 1895. A true pioneer among Italian glove exporters to the U.S., Fortunato Portolano laid the foundation for a tradition that continues to thrive today. Now, the fourth generation—Vittorio, Francesca, Federica, and Fabiana—carries this legacy forward, driven by passion and a commitment to excellence.

Their vision extends far beyond gloves; they have embraced the art of creating a diverse range of high-quality and luxurious products made from leather, cashmere, and knitted materials. Each piece not only reflects the iconic Portolano standard of excellence but also embodies the spirit of innovation and dedication. 

With a blend of genuine Italian craftsmanship and the creativity of talented U.S. family designers, Portolano products are more than just luxurious items—they are a testament to the enduring power of family, tradition, and artistry. As they continue to expand their multi-product line, they inspire us all to pursue our passions and preserve the legacies that define us.
