The brand’s history dates back to the early 1980s in the US, when Diego and Andrea Della Valle discovered the work jackets worn by the Maine fire department.
ABOUT FAY
Forged in the USA, cooled in Italy
Realising their potential, they took over the Fay brand, a specialist producer of technical garments for fishermen and firefighters, bringing it to Italy with a very clear idea: to adapt workwear into the urban environment.
Life-Proof Favourites
The work jacket became an excellent solution for city life, and was soon elevated to cult status in capitals worldwide: the “Fay 4 Ganci”. The constantly-reworked iconic jacket is now accompanied by a clothing line, made distinctive by its innovative materials and timeless authentic Italian outerwear characteristics.
