Black nubuck, a sturdy line.

Boldness at your feet.

The fur-lined ankle boot with a look inspired by sturdy models, the one that brings a bold touch to all your winter outfits. Lugano embodies this trendy, assertive style, here in its most versatile black version: a black nubuck with a deep grain, a padded collar that highlights the line, a high lacing with metal eyelets that structures the shaft, and a lugged non-slip sole with pronounced relief. A pair with outdoor character that pairs with raw denim jeans, heavy canvas trousers, or anthracite trousers with a parka — for all those days when style is all about boldness.

Black nubuck, a sturdy line. Black nubuck covers the entire ankle boot, with a deep grain that recalls the reinvented work-boot aesthetic. The padded collar and contrasting visible stitching define the line at first glance — the bold touch promised, without ever compromising comfort.

A faux-fur lining, a non-slip sole.

A faux-fur lining, a non-slip sole. The inside is lined with faux fur that covers the entire shaft: warmth and comfort guaranteed for chilly days, whatever the temperature. Beneath, the synthetic non-slip sole ensures good grip on all types of surfaces — wet cobblestones, dirt paths, frozen sidewalks. And the anatomical wedge sole subtly improves posture — back straight, shoulders open, stride assured.

Mario Bertulli craftsmanship, applied to boldness. Like all our models, Lugano secretly gives you +3.0'' thanks to a completely invisible internal lift. What sets it apart: that trendy look that affirms your style while staying comfortable. You’re not just wearing a height-increasing ankle boot — you’re wearing the perfect accessory to make an outfit stand out, signed by more than fifty years of Italian craftsmanship.

A pair that accompanies you from a cold-weather stroll around town to a relaxing moment with friends, from an outdoor weekend to an after-work aperitif.
