Our Roots

Xacus, a family-run business, has seen its history become closely interwoven with the lives of its people, whether collaborators, customers, suppliers, or business partners. A story marked by the same stages of development as any other living being.

1956 / Childhood

It was 1956 when Alberto Xoccato, visionary artisan in Veneto, founded Xacus. The name comes from the initials for Xoccato Alberto Camiceria Uomo San Vito di Leguzzano, a small industrial workshop operating in the family attic.

1970 / Adolescence

In 1970, Xacus became a fashion business. The structure and organisation were integrated but above all, recognised and appreciated throughout north-east Italy, both in terms of product quality and for the highest customer service standards.

1980 / Coming of age

It was 1980 when Xacus, with the help of the founder’s sons, Giorgio and Paolo, who joined the company hot on the heels of success obtained all over Italy thanks to its unmistakable hallmark style, crossed the national borders to reach North America, followed by Spain, Holland, Belgium, Scandinavia and Korea.

What we love is what we do

1990 / Young adulthood

In 1990 Xacus faced the challenge of third millennium globalisation, updating all its production, logistic, and distribution processes, as well as perfecting strategic partnerships with some of the most important names in Made in Italy.

2010 / Middle age

In 2010, fully aware of its capabilities, Xacus launched its women’s line, at the same time defining the items that would go on to become the guidelines for its future digital, multi-channel and sustainable development.
