Sustainability
The Capri in Castagna is an elevated sneaker handcrafted in Italy from vegetable-tanned brown leather that develops a rich patina over time. Featuring an Ortholite tech-foam insole and natural rubber outsole, it blends comfort with heritage appeal. Wear casually with navy chinos and a white polo, or elevate your look with tailored beige trousers and a navy blazer.
Important information: Our Castagna leather is a vegetable-tanned premium Italian leather. Thanks to this tanning method and the hand-polishing, it attains a unique depth and sheen. It will age gracefully and change its appearance slightly over time. Given the natural tanning process, you can expect variations from the images shown. These variations are a result of the manufacturing process and a testament to the high-quality craftsmanship we pursue.

Size Guide
How It Fits
Wide-fit Koios are exactly the same length as regular-fit Koio Capris, but they have a slightly wider fit. Wide-fit Koios are designed to fit those who typically buy shoes with an E width. Please note: if you typically wear an EE width or wider, wide-fit Capris might be too narrow for you. Measuring your foot using a Brannock device (available in most shoe stores), will help you determine your width precisely.

How to Measure Your Foot
Follow these simple steps to find your perfect size. You'll need a ruler and a sheet of paper.
1. Place the sheet of paper against a wall or straight edge.
2. Position one foot along the sheet of paper, pressed against the wall.
3. Align a ruler beside your foot.
4. Measure the length in centimeters or inches from the tip of your longest toe.
5. Repeat the process for your other foot.
Compare your measurements with the size chart. If your foot measurement falls between sizes, choose the larger size.

Our Value
At Koio we’re striving to make the most valuable shoe on the market. For us, value doesn’t come from an outrageous ticket price; it comes from pairing ethics with the highest-quality Italian materials and craftsmanship to create the best shoe we can, and pricing it at a fair margin that allows us to do business sustainably.
Our Quality
Each of our shoes passes through the hands of 42 craftspeople at our manufacturer in Italy, using locally sourced premium leathers, suedes, and recycled materials. We’re creating footwear that’s matched only by the world’s most renown luxury brands in its dedication to quality. How do we know? Because we see their shoes being manufactured next to ours by the same craftspeople.
Don’t get us started on retailers. Italian leather shoes of comparable craftsmanship are sold for twice the price of Koios or more. When a luxury brand sells a shoe to a retailer, the retailer applies a markup of at least 100% to the wholesale price—the price that they are paying the luxury brand—in order to come up with the price that you are seeing in the store. When you buy a pair of $600 leather shoes through retail, at least half your money goes to the store location.
We get around the unnecessarily pricey world of traditional retail by selling the finest Italian leather shoes directly to you.
Here's to getting the best value for your money.
