Quality, craftsmanship and elegance since 1945.
Cruz de Pedra was first established in 1945 at the heart of one of Portugal’s most renowned shoemaking towns: Guimarães.
The company, founded by Mr. José Pereira Pontes, has been in the family ever since. Over the years we’ve gathered experience and accumulated know-how that allowed us to follow a path of constant growth.
We remained true to our roots and the appreciation of traditional handmade shoes, but our footwear manufacturing processes continued to evolve over the years.
Balancing uncompromised quality with a forward-thinking approach to design, we have turned timeless footwear into sophisticated and innovative products closely associated with design and fashion, an approach that allowed our product to have a worldwide reach and launched collaborations with some of the most important brands in the fashion industry.
