Alfredo Rifugio, Scafati

"Alfredo Rifugio" è sia un nome iconico, sia un marchio nel mondo dei capi in pelle. La creazione del capo Rifugio non può essere definita un prodotto industriale ma piuttosto un'opera d'arte fatta a mano. Le nostre sarte sono donne esperte e solo con ago e ditale sanno cucire con una precisione millimetrica portando nella mente e nelle mani la misura dei nostri capolavori. Tagliamo la nostra pelle per creare una linea armoniosa e lusinghiera, tenendo conto di tutte le piccole imperfezioni della forma del gentiluomo.

"Alfredo Rifugio" is both an iconic name, and brand in the world of leather garments. He began his profession at the age of 13, and has been a bespoke master tailor for over 50 years. His artistically hand crafted garments and master craftsmanship have defined Alfredo as the "king of handmade leather jackets". His works of art have been treasured by all, but maybe none so distinguished as Pope John Paul II. Referred by the Pope's personal pilot, Alfredo was commissioned to make the "white jewel" the can be seen on the Pope during skiing and hiking excursions. He is invested in the production of jackets and outerwear, made from the finest quality hides. The creation of a Rifugio garment cannot be called an industrial product, but rather a handmade work of art. Tanneries prepare the hides specifically for him.
