Offering an explosion of colours, the YAB shoes reveal each person’s personality and their desire to be noticed, thanks to footwear that combines design and comfort.

All the YAB collections are made entirely in Italy in the factory owned by the brand (operating since 1976), in the historic footwear manufacturing district of Macerata. Every stage of the production process reflects the handcrafted tradition of Italian master shoemakers who take care of every aspect of the shoes, from the cutting of the leather up to the buffering by hand.

The new YAB collection presented at the latest Pitti Uomo brings the active spirit to a great men’s classic. In fact, inspired by the motto “If we want everything to remain the same, everything needs to be changed”, Samuele Parrucci transforms the Brogue, one of the great classics in Oxford or Derby style, and makes sure it falls in love with the EVA sole. Two oppositions reconciled by an iconoclastic aesthetic, which breaks from the norm, dismantles the usual and builds new aspirations. Fun. Because men now also want to dress for fun and want to try new ideas to amaze himself, before others.

The dovetail of the upper is designed in leather and stretch wool in colours such as black and Prince of Wales, or dark brown and tweed melange. Underneath, the supple texture of EVA comes in colours such as burgundy or green grass mixed with white.
