The new location has almost twice as much space asScarpaletto’s Cherry Creek mall store, according to storeowner Philip Vivinetto.
“At the new store, we’re going into ladies’apparel, footwear and handbags,” Vivinetto said.
The store previously specialized in men’s shoes —including brands such as Banfi, Ferragamo and Lorenzo — aswell as men’s clothing and accessories. Scarpaletto roughlymeans “fits like a glove.”
