Who
can afford claiming, in Saint-tropez, that he or she has never
heard about the well-known Sandales Tropeziennes, in Saint-Tropez?
For 80 years, the Rondini Family has been making the legendary leather sandals, being Saint-Tropez first-ever sandal cobbler. Its hand made production, worlds apart from the shoe industrial production, manages to attract people and customers from various places in the world. Robustness and flexibility of the sandals, as well as sobriety and regularity of striped sandals, professionalism of the workshop, all this enables Rondini to be the one from whom the sandal is always coming… Everything started in 1927, at the beginning, the gamut consisted in only one model. His son Serge quickly developped the family business creating many other beautiful sandal models, taking his inspiration either from the sun of Capri, of India, of Egypt, or from hot sands of the Sahara desert. Since 1983, Alain, son of Serge and Roseline, joined the family shop. Today, everything still happens in the small workshop behind the "boutique", the place where the hand-made production has come from for 70 years, piece by piece.
