Salvatore Capezio, born in 1871 in Muro Lucano, Italy, had no interest in following in his father's footsteps as a construction engineer. Instead, he became an artist in his own right—a cobbler. At the age of 17, in 1887, he opened his shop on Broadway and 39th Street, diagonally across from the old Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. His shop soon became a meeting place for dancers who would come in to discuss their needs and buy a pair of his shoes. As Capezio's popularity grew, dancers from all over the world made it a point to visit him and purchase his shoes.

The innovative products created by Salvatore Capezio, as well as the camaraderie he shared with the dancers, shaped the direction his company would take. The Capezio brand was established to promote and acknowledge ongoing achievements and participation in dance. Capezio products continue to lead in terms of quality and technological advances, offering innovations like the split-sole, stretch-insert, Dansneaker, and Tapsneaker.

Capezio believes that their success relies on the individual commitment of each customer to continually set new standards of creativity and performance, while maintaining a reputation for reliability and distinction. They pledge their support and dedication to the advancement of dance, theater, and recreation in communities worldwide.
