Cagliari navy height-increasing loafers +5.5 cm

BOAT SHOE — Cagliari navy

Riviera, effortlessly.

The boat loafer as dreamed of from the tables of a southern café: the one you slip on in three seconds and that turns a simple outfit into a considered silhouette. The Cagliari embodies that relaxed, distinctly Italian elegance: a deep navy nubuck with a velvety grain, a contrasting white decorative lacing hand-stitched on the vamp, a cleanly drawn penny loafer strap, and a lightweight, flexible non-slip sole. A pair that goes with ivory chinos, linen trousers, or denim shorts — never compromising on style.

Soft nubuck, warm to the eye. The navy nubuck was selected for its rich grain and velvety feel — the material that gives the shoe character without ever weighing it down. It develops a delicate patina over the summers, catches the southern light, and needs only a simple brush to maintain. The contrast of the visible white topstitching sculpts the line and identifies the boat loafer at first glance.

A leather lining, a sole that stands the test of time. The fully leather-lined interior lets the foot breathe and molds to your size over time — the hallmark of a truly quality shoe. Beneath, a lightweight, flexible non-slip synthetic sole provides firm grip on wet cobblestones as well as on wooden terraces. And the anatomical wedge sole subtly straightens posture — back straight, shoulders open, confident stride.

Mario Bertulli craftsmanship, adapted for summer. Like all our models, the Cagliari secretly gives you +5.5 cm thanks to a completely invisible internal lift. What sets it apart: its lightness. You’re not simply wearing a height-boosting loafer — you’re wearing the boat loafer that adds height without showing it, backed by over fifty years of Italian craftsmanship.

A pair that carries you from lunch on the terrace to sunset aperitifs, with cool feet and impeccable style.
