BOOTS & ANKLE BOOTS — Alba black

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.

ELEVATOR SHOES BY
MARIO BERTULLI

The back of the shoe is higher, and the rear curve is adjusted to:

  • Keep the foot perfectly secure inside the shoe
  • Prevent any rubbing on the Achilles tendon

THE OTHERS

The lift is simply placed in a normal shoe, which causes :

The heel slips out of the shoe while walking

The instep shaft axis is adjusted to provide enough space for the foot and ensure support and comfort

The foot is compressed in the shoe, causing pain

All proportions of the shoe (sole, upper, and lining) are adjusted to the lift for optimal comfort and to ensure it remains visually imperceptible

Difficulty lacing the shoes as the top of the foot is compressed

ABSOLUTE COMFORT FOR YOUR FEET IN TOTAL DISCRETION

1. DO NOT WEAR THEM TOO OFTEN:

To avoid damaging them and to promote drying and ventilation of the leather, preventing premature ageing. It is recommended not to wear the same pair more than twice a week.

2. USE SHOE TREES:

Insert shoe trees into your  shoes after wearing them to maintain their shape and absorb moisture.

See our range of shoe trees >
