30 KM OF EXCELLENCE

The small village of Pontassieve is the focal point around which Il Bisonte’s entire manufacturing universe can be found within a radius of only 30 km. A short production chain is gently guarded by the Arno and Sieve rivers and located just a few minutes from Florence, in the center of a territory known for its superior craftsmanship.

All the brand’s products come from here, as well as a love and passion for high quality leather.

All fabrics and leathers are tanned, coupled, cut, split, skived and hand stitched in the in the heart of Tuscany, whose handcrafting skills have been recognized since ancient times.

Vineyards, olive groves, orchards, woods and wheat fields; Romanesque churches, medieval castles and Renaissance villas; evidence of prehistoric times and of the Etruscan and Roman civilizations; hills, waterways and mountains: in Valdisieve, Mugello and Valdarno, man’s industriousness and the generosity of nature have shaped a unique and characteristic territory that has extraordinarily fused beauty, competence and creativity over the centuries.

Il Bisonte is proud to produce all its creations in this receptacle of vastly valuable knowledge, and to help pass on these traditions from generation to generation.
