Capezio is the trade name of Capezio Ballet Makers Inc., an American manufacturer ofdance shoes, apparel and accessories.

History

[edit]

In 1887,Salvatore Capezio, an Italian cobbler emigrated to the United States, opened a shoe repair shop near theold Metropolitan Opera House in New York City.[1] He began his business by repairing theatrical shoes forthe Met, and transitioned from cobbler to shoemaker when he created a fine pair of shoes for Polish tenorJean de Reszke in an emergency. His shop soon became a meeting place for dancers who would stop by to discuss their needs and purchase his shoes.

Over time, his reputation grew and visiting dancers would often come to his shop to purchase shoes. One of those visitors,Anna Pavlova, purchased Capeziopointe shoes for herself and her entire company during her first tour of the United States in 1910, thereby helping Capezio establish wide public visibility.[1]

From 1940,Ben Sommers was president of the company until his death in 1985. He used his position to promote and support dance and performance art, establishing events such asNational Dance Week in 1978 and in 1957, the Capezio Dance Award.[2] Under Sommers's tenure, in 1941,Lord & Taylor,Neiman-Marcus, and other stores began to market and distribute Capezio footwear.

Salvatore Capezio's family eventually joined him in the business, and today the company is operated by third- and fourth-generation family members. The company now employs modern, computerized manufacturing systems, though its Special Make-up Department continues to hand craft special order footwear

In 2017, Lynn Shanahan became the first non-family CEO of Capezio.[3]

Capezio Dance Award
