Visit Booth 2624 in the Fashion Collection Ballroom for handcrafted leather footwear with New York edge and Colombian soul

Some brands are built around trend. Others are built around craftsmanship, conviction, and the hands behind it.

At The Atlanta Shoe Market, Stivali New York brings all three together.

Founded in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in 2016 by Lina Cristancho and Louis Guarin — a second-generation shoemaker — Stivali New York is a family-run footwear house with roots that reach back to Colombia, where the family atelier has been handcrafting leather footwear since 1998.

The brand’s story began simply: two founders, a Brooklyn apartment, a belief in great leather, and the artisans back home who believed in the vision.

No investors. No outside capital. No shortcuts.

Today, every pair is still designed in New York and handcrafted in-house in Colombia by a team of more than 60 artisans. The brand now ships to more than 400 doors nationwide, including national accounts.

New York gives the brand its edge. Colombia gives it its soul.

Intentional Luxury, Built Differently

Stivali New York describes its approach as intentional luxury.

That means genuine leather, small-batch production, thoughtful construction, and a focus on creating premium footwear without the layers of excess that often come with traditional luxury.

Nothing is outsourced. Nothing is mass-produced. Nothing is overproduced.

For retailers, that translates into a collection with a clear story behind it — one that connects craftsmanship, heritage, modern styling, and intentional luxury in a way customers can understand.

Built for Independent Retailers

What makes Stivali New York particularly interesting for TASM buyers is not only the product — it is the way the wholesale program is structured.

The brand has built flexibility into the buying process, giving retailers room to test, scale, and reorder without unnecessary friction.

Retail benefits include:

• All tariffs and duties covered
• S. entity and USD invoicing
• No brokerage or unexpected landed-cost fees
• Open size runs from US 5–12 in full sizes
• No forced pre-packs
• Order flexibility from 6-pair color tests to larger programs
• 4–6 week lead times year-round
• Production priority on in-season reorders of performing styles
• Direct shipping from the family atelier to retailer distribution centers
• Small-batch production with no overproduction
• Independently funded ownership with no venture capital or outside investors

For boutiques and specialty retailers, that flexibility can make a meaningful difference. Buyers can test a color or silhouette without committing to oversized pre-packs, then reorder into styles that perform.

What Buyers Should See at Booth 2624

Stivali New York is bringing several standout styles and collections to TASM.

Revival

Revival is the brand’s signature style — a heritage silhouette rebuilt as a modern tallboot.

It captures the Stivali New York aesthetic especially well: rooted in tradition, but designed for the way customers want to dress now. For most retailers, Revival is the style that defines the brand on the floor.

The Agiatezza Collection

The Agiatezza Collection is built around mid-height boots designed for all-day wear.

The collection features a deep range of chocolate browns and earthy leather tones that give retailers versatile options for fall and transitional assortments.

Eterna

Eterna, the cowhide Mary Jane, is Stivali New York’s highest-volume style by units and one of the strongest entry points into the collection.

Its combination of approachable pricing, distinctive material, and recognizable silhouette makes it especially relevant for retailers looking for a statement style that can still sell at volume.

Unstoppable

Unstoppable is the western boot that helped start the brand — and it continues to grow.

Western influences remain an important part of the footwear conversation, but Stivali New York approaches the category through its own leather-driven, hand-crafted perspective rather than treating it as a passing trend.

The Red Edit

The newest capsule, The Red Edit, takes one leather color across multiple categories, including boots, loafers, Mary Janes, and belts.

Red is currently the brand’s strongest-performing color, giving the collection immediate visual impact while offering retailers a cohesive merchandising story.

Discover Stivali New York at TASM

Consumers increasingly want to know where products come from and who is behind them. Stivali New York gives retailers a story that is easy to tell — and a product that stands on its own without it.

Buyers looking for handcrafted leather footwear, flexible wholesale terms, strong seasonal color, and a brand with a distinct identity should make Stivali New York a priority stop.
