TOMBOLINI
Silvio, what distinguishes Tombolini from other men’s brands? Silvio Calvigioni Tombolini, Managing Director Marketing & Sales at Tombolini: My grandfather always said: “The future draws from its roots.” Our commitment to “Made in Italy” is unwavering, which means our manufacturing structure ensures values such as tailoring, technology, innovation, and sustainability. Our family is both traditional and creative, and we bring a wealth of experience in men’s collections to the table. The combination of these elements is capable of convincing even the most discerning customer. Because dressing is not a simple task, it is art.

a luxurious collection at astonishingly competitive prices, yet also available as “Su Misura”. The TMB Running collection, on the other hand, creates a hybrid between sport and ready-to-wear. It features a suit made of stretch material that you could actually go for a run in. This even inspires the players of AS Roma, who wear this suit in blue at all official functions. The highlights of the next collection in a word rap… We are Pitti-Uomo returnees, presenting Tombolini and Zero Gravity. Our highlight is the Zero Impact line: a suit made of innovative fabrics that can be washed in a washing machine. Also, a 100 percent biodegradable jacket, sustainable in all its components right down to the hangers and labels. And not to forget the suit made of RYC, recycled and re-recyclable materials. What are your expectations for the DACH market? We want to consolidate our position in all our markets, and the DACH area plays an important role in this. It has developed into our strongest European market in no more than three seasons. The collaboration with Elvis Giglione Fashion Agency is a resounding success; our very structured service including an NOS system for some products has received excellent feedback from customers.
