Style icons on sale – Tod’s shoes in the temporary brand sale at Outletcity Metzingen

Now in its third generation of family leadership, the Italian heritage brand Tod’s remains largely family-owned and proudly reflects on over a century of shoemaking excellence.

It all began more than 100 years ago, when Filippo Della Valle – grandfather of current CEO Diego Della Valle – founded a small workshop that would grow into a global success story marked by meticulous craftsmanship, relentless dedication and the flair of Italian fashion. The brand’s more recent legacy is inseparably linked to one shoe: the “Gommino” – a leather loafer featuring exactly 133 rubber pebbles on the sole. Originally designed for racing drivers in the 1950s, it was in Della Valle’s workshop that the shoe took on its now-signature silhouette. The result? A truly distinctive design that has lost none of its charm or relevance over the decades. Discover the understated elegance of this Italian luxury label and its signature style.
