The story of the NR Rapisardi company begins earlier, in the 1900s when the Rapisardi, a noble family with Sicilian origins, produced and exported refined shoes. It was 1959 when Giancarlo Rapisardi founded the Rapisardi company and started the production with the Rapisardi label, in a momentous phase for the Italian fashion which, due to its craftsmanship, refined materials, and unique style, conquered the center stage of the fashion industry.
