Earth Day, Every Day: Quiet Luxury with a Conscience
The Earth is in our hands — and at San Rocco Italia, we believe in caring for it with intention and grace. Each piece we carry is rooted in our belief that true luxury honours people, planet, and heritage. On Earth Day — and every day — we celebrate that commitment by choosing slow fashion, timeless design, and thoughtful sourcing.
What Sustainability Means to Us
To us, sustainability is not a slogan. It’s a way of thinking, designing, and living. We believe that fashion should tread lightly, and that elegance should never come at the cost of the environment. That’s why we carefully choose partners who share our values — small, independent makers who work with care, not haste.
Italian Leather with a Lighter Footprint
Our handbags are made in Italy using leather sourced locally, exclusively from the byproducts of the food industry. No animals are raised for leather alone — a practice that turns potential waste into something beautiful and enduring.
Many of our bags use vegetable-tanned leather, hand-stained and slow-crafted by Tuscan artisans. Others are made using advanced, chrome-tanned techniques that meet Europe’s strictest environmental standards. Either way, every bag is designed to last — and to age gracefully with you.

Partners in Purpose: Our European Makers
Sustainability doesn’t end with our handbags. We work with a select group of small European brands — experts in their craft who produce in small batches, using natural materials and time-honoured techniques. These are makers who care as much about the story behind a piece as the final result.
Choosing Linen, Naturally
We adore linen — and not just for its breezy elegance. Linen is one of the most eco-friendly textiles available, requiring far less water than cotton and no synthetic fertilisers. Our linen dresses are made in small quantities in Europe by artisans who work slowly, with purpose. The result is effortless, breathable luxury — perfect for the warmer months and kind to the Earth.
Shoes That Walk Softly
Our ballet flats are handmade in Estonia by a family-run brand founded in 1927. Made from natural materials with traditional techniques, they’re built to last and backed by a two-year guarantee. These shoes are the antithesis of throwaway fashion — timeless, repairable, and comfortable from the very first step.
Jewellery with Soul
Our jewellery is designed with intention. Many of our pieces are made with upcycled materials or by makers who use low-impact processes. We believe your accessories should not only look beautiful but feel meaningful — wearable stories that reflect both style and sustainability.
