Alba black lift ankle boots +8.5 cm

8.5 cm of extra happiness.

The high ankle boot that stands out as the foundation of a winter wardrobe, the one you wear in the city as well as in the countryside to face the whole cold season in style. Alba embodies this winter versatility: black calf leather with a refined finish, a distinctive toe cap that structures the front, high lace-up fastening with eyelets and hooks for perfect ankle support, and a contrasting lug sole with reliable grip. A pair that works with raw rolled-up jeans, warm wool trousers with a knit sweater, or dark chinos with a parka — for all the days when elegance has to hold up on cobblestones as well as on trails.

Calf leather, a distinctive toe cap. Black calf leather covers the entire ankle boot, chosen for its quality and long-lasting durability. The toe cap precisely structures the front and gives the model its signature at first glance — a classic detail that sets Alba apart from standard urban ankle boots and gives it the character of a true boot.

A moisture-wicking lining, a non-slip sole. The moisture-wicking microfiber interior keeps the foot dry all day long, including during long winter walks. Underneath, the non-slip lugged synthetic sole provides solid traction on wet cobblestones as well as on icy paths. And the anatomical wedge sole subtly straightens posture — back straight, shoulders open, confident stride.

Mario Bertulli craftsmanship, applied to record height. Like all our models, Alba secretly gives you +8.5 cm thanks to a fully invisible and particularly imperceptible internal lift while walking. What sets it apart: this generous height that blends naturally into the boot’s silhouette, without ever giving away the secret. You’re not simply wearing a height-boosting ankle boot — you’re wearing the foundation of your winter wardrobe, signed with over fifty years of Italian craftsmanship.

A pair that accompanies you from the morning commute in the city to the weekend in the countryside, from a forest walk to a winter dinner, without ever making you feel its 8.5 cm.
