The Italian brand continues a family saga that began eight decades ago, at a time when one would have to be a dreamer to imagine the scale that underwater exploration would take. Since then, each generation has passed on the company’s values to the next, while bringing the necessary modernity for the brand’s expansion. Always making it a point of honor to manufacture the majority of its products in Italy.
To celebrate this important milestone, the brand presents Dive Yellow: a limited edition capsule collection composed of eleven products, paying tribute to its history and the color that best represents it. A bridge between tradition and the future, dedicated to all those who live the sea every day.
A Family Story
The story begins before World War II near the vast port of Genoa, the capital of Liguria, which has always owed its flourishing development to maritime trade. Egidio Cressi, then employed in the banking sector, was passionate about spearfishing, as well as everything related to the sea. Whenever he could, he spent long hours in the water, exploring rocks, seagrass beds, and drop-offs, either on the lookout or in contemplation of a Mediterranean that was still almost untouched. Knowing perfectly the needs of those who venture beyond the surface, he began to handcraft equipment and eventually left his first profession. Quickly, he partnered with his brother Nanni (Giovanni), and over the years, they transformed the activity together to gradually achieve industrial production.
