They specialise in making men’s shoes in smaller collections or custom-made men’s shoes. Their shoe sizes range from 38 to 50 and they use only the best materials.
Their shop and production facility are located in downtown Zagreb. As time went by they have become increasingly export-oriented, which turned out to be a success. They say that they make shoes for two types of men: those who know exactly what they want and those who don’t.

Bruno Budiselić says that up to 80% of customers come from abroad and that they take part in numerous fairs in neighbouring Italy. The entire family works in their small family shoe store and every single shoe is their original design. They keep up with the latest trends and use only the best leather, which is why customers have recognised their handmade creations.
Every shoe is unique and they can make whatever the customer has in mind. In addition to designing and producing men’s shoes, shoe salon Zlatko performs all types of repairs. Opening a store in downtown Zagreb as well as expanding in Split are just some of the future plans.
They proudly point out that they have innumerable faithful customers and that for the past four years they’ve been running a sought after production line for foreign markets, which they plan on expanding. The Budiselić family have managed to carve out their market niche that values handmade items and superior quality footwear customers are ready to pay money for.
