Cofra

The company was established in 1938 by Ruggiero Cortellino as Cortelgomma, a small workshop where shoes were manufactured using the tyres of military trucks for the soles and military uniforms for the uppers. Everyday about 10 pairs of shoes were produced and sold to the nearest markets. The founder's passion and enterprise let the small workshop turn into a company in few years, producing hundreds of pairs a day, distributed all over Italy. In 1983 the company became Cofra which is now managed by Giuseppe Cortellino, Ruggiero's son. Cofra keeps on growing thanks to a wise and innovative management, which has led it to become a leader in the safety footwear market as well as a wellknown brand in Europe and all over the world. Cofra is today considered a safety footwear specialist. It invests in research and development in order to offer innovative and new trends solutions. Cofra have since added a workwear collection to the range, which is bulit for reliability, protection, comfort and care for detail and is able to meet any workers needs, whatever the working environment and the weather.
