Founder
1982 Florence, Italy
Luca Gorini while still in high school in Florence, Italy spends his spare time trying to earn his living in trading materials from Prato, where the textile industry had grown since the 50’s with the regenerated wool – his interest in this field starts from there – he will further collect high quality “made in the USA” vintage clothing sold at the American Market as an extension of the PX at nearby Camp Darby U.S. Army based in Leghorn, the tuscan Harbour, where one could find tee shirts, Levi’s jeans, and Ray Ban sunglasses very conveniently.
