Jon Buscemi (/buːˈsɛmi/; born October 3, 1975) is an Italian-American fashion designer known for his work at Oliver Peoples, co-founding Gourmet,[1] and his eponymous brand Buscemi.[2] Jon Buscemi is the cousin of the famous actor Steve Buscemi.
Career
After working on Wall Street,[3] Jon began to amass a very broad sneaker collection and soon took his hunt for very exclusive and limited edition sneakers world-wide.[4] Simultaneously, many of his skateboarding peers started their own brands in the street-wear and skate space. Through these industry connections, Buscemi was hired by skateboard footwear brand DC Shoe Co. USA to work on special projects.[5]
After DC, he left to become the Creative Director of Lotto USA, a partnership with the Italian tennis and soccer brand Lotto.[citation needed] Along with a small team of creatives, Buscemi launched Lotto Leggenda in the US before going on to work as a Brand Director at Oliver Peoples.[citation needed]
In 2006, Buscemi and two partners launched the footwear brand Gourmet.[6] During his tenure at Gourmet, the company raised controversy and fandom alike by releasing sneakers that took design cues from iconic sneaker silhouettes, such as the Air Jordan 7 and Air Jordan 11.[7] After leaving Gourmet in January 2013, Buscemi launched the eponymous brand Buscemi at Capsule Show in Paris in June 2013.[citation needed]
