Selle Italia has been at the forefront of saddle design for 120 years.
The brand has its origins just outside of Milan in the village of Corsico in 1897. Selle Italia was originally founded to make saddles for everyday bicycles used for transportation.
Back then, automobiles were unaffordable for most, and the bike was the transport of choice for many. Fast forward to the late 1970s: The automobile had long replaced the bicycle as a primary mode of transport and cycling was more for sport than functional transportation.
The Bigolin family took over Selle Italia and began an upward trajectory that propelled the brand to the top with continuous product innovation encompassing new construction techniques and using new materials. This innovation and vision has made Selle Italia the acknowledged #1 source for high-end bike saddles worldwide.
