Lotto through the years.

A legacy of Movement from Montebelluna to the world, here's how Lotto shaped the game-on courts, fields, and streets.

Legacy 2

We don't just make shoes. We build a legacy of sport.

Founded in 1973 in Montebelluna, Italy's footwear heartland, we started with tennis shoes built on passion and craftsmanship. From basketball, volleyball, athletics, and soccer, our journey has always stood for performance, passion, and fair play—marked by our iconic "double field" logo.
