Team Corazzo

The In-House Team
Rarely caught sitting at a drafting table or staring at a computer screen.

Collectively, our 500,000 miles of two-wheeled riding in all kinds of conditions has translated into every aspect of the fit and finished look of our products.

Our Rides The Corazzo fleet includes everything from a Tomos moped to a Ducati 1098s racing motorcycle to five different Vespas of various ages and conditions.

Alan Hardy
Alan’s advanced design sensibility has definitely set a new standard for stylish riding apparel. He was a design director at Converse, a design director for American Sporting Goods and a senior designer at Nike before he was kind enough to take on the very first project at Corazzo. And that was back before we were actual bricks and mortar and more like a collection of hopes and dreams.

Alan’s Ride Alan can be found riding his KTM 690 through the wilds of British Columbia.

Michael Fontanarossa
Formerly a senior category manager at Adidas, as well as a designer for Nike and Motorola, Michael has ridden scooters and motorcycles for as long as he can remember. It’s this experience as a real life action figure that goes into all of his designs for us. It probably also helps that his misspent youth includes time designing toys at Hasbro and Tonka.

Michael’s Rides Michael has found new avocation in off-road enduro motorcycle racing. And he is on the hunt for a Vespa Rally 200.

Amy Klee
Extremely well regarded in the design community, Amy made the cover of Fast Company magazine as an example of a woman designing for fellow women within Nike’s “high testosterone” walls. But her proudest moment may be designing and developing products for the 2000 Sydney US Olympic Team, 2003 Women's World Cup Soccer, 2004 Athens US Olympic Team. More recently, she’s designed for IceBreaker, maker of high tech Merino Wool sportswear and of course, Corazzo.

Amy’s Ride Amy likes to ride a dirt bike in the hills behind her Hood River studio.

Arno Jenkins
Arno is truly one of the sexiest people we've ever met, he always looks great and makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside. He's been with us since the beginning.

When he's not on vacation he can be found chillin' in his studio....just checking to see if you're proof reading. ;-)

Arno’s Ride Arno can be found riding his Vespa GTS250 Super with wings all over Portland. Rain or shine.
