The Gondolino brand was created over 50 years ago by DERCAL S.A., a leading Argentine footwear firm during the 1960s and 1970s specializing in men, women and children.

In 1980 we decided to change the name of the firm to Der Kervorkian Hnos. That was when we, the sons of the founding director Juan, became the new owners of the company.

One of our first decisions was to specialize in manufacturing shoes for men.

Our intuition and effort resulted in success and we were able to maintain the prestige the accompanied our brand name, Gondolino.

As the years went by we observed that there was a portion of the market that was unattended. It was the manufacturing of shoes for people with wide feet or and any other difficulty.

We have worked very hard in achieving designs and models that meet our objective and satisfy the needs of our clientele that require comfortable quality shoes along with elegance.

We can now say that the best shoe stores in Argentina carry our line of shoes and that an important part of the sales is made up of comfortable shoes.

It gives us great satisfaction to say that orthopedic surgeons and chiropodists all over Argentina recommend our products to their clients.

This line of shoes, that we now show the world in this web page, is manufactured based on an extensive selection of first quality raw materials, fashionable designs and craftsmanship.

All those people that have wide feet, a high instep, wear insoles or have any other difficulty that makes wearing shoes uncomfortable will find a solution at Gondolino.

Our experience and the knowledge that we have acquired over the years have successfully led us to markets abroad. As a result we are convinced that our products have a price/quality competitive advantage according to international standards. Due to this we are prepared for our next challenge, export our shoes to the rest of the world.
