Calf leather, a distinctive toe cap.

8.5 cm of extra happiness.

The high-top ankle boot that stands 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 with style. Alba embodies this winter versatility, here in its warmest cognac brown colorway: a glossy brown calf leather, a distinctive toe cap that structures the front, a high lace-up closure with brass eyelets for perfect ankle support, and a contrasting lug sole with strong grip. A pair that works with raw rolled-up jeans, corduroy trousers with a knit sweater, or dark chinos with a parka — for every day when elegance has to hold up on cobblestones as well as on trails.

Calf leather, a distinctive toe cap. The brown calf leather covers the entire ankle boot, chosen for its quality and long-lasting durability — a glossy finish that catches the light and gains character with wear. The toe cap precisely structures the front and immediately defines the model — 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.

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 trails. 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 internal lift that is particularly imperceptible while walking. What sets it apart: this generous height that blends naturally into the boot’s silhouette, never giving away the secret. You are not simply wearing a height-increasing ankle boot — you are wearing the foundation of your winter wardrobe, signed by over fifty years of Italian craftsmanship.

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