About MANIFATTURA CECCARELLI

Manifattura Ceccarelli was founded in 1998 by Giuliano Ceccarelli, an Italian entrepreneur originally from Santa Sofia, Tuscany. Rooted in the rugged landscapes of the Apennines and the Casentinesi forests near Forlì, the brand reflects a deep connection to nature and traditional craftsmanship. Giuliano, who previously worked as a distributor and manufacturer for Filson in Italy, sought to create a line of outdoor apparel that combined the durability and performance of classic workwear with refined Italian tailoring and style.

The brand is renowned for its meticulous use of premium natural materials, such as Panno Grosso del Casentino wool—a thick, warm fabric historically used by shepherds—pure virgin wool padding, waxed cotton treated with natural paraffins, and luxurious linings like Cupro and Bemberg. These materials not only ensure protection against harsh weather but also emphasize sustainability and longevity. Every garment, from fisherman parkas and mountain jackets to versatile overshirts, is crafted in small Italian ateliers near Forlì, reflecting an artisanal approach that values quality over mass production.

Manifattura Ceccarelli’s designs marry rugged functionality with understated elegance, making them equally suited for outdoor adventures and urban settings. The brand's commitment to durability means its pieces are built to last a lifetime, embodying a philosophy of timeless style and responsible production. With a growing international presence across Europe and Asia, Manifattura Ceccarelli has established itself as a modern emblem of Italian outdoor heritage, blending nature-inspired authenticity with sophisticated craftsmanship.
