Black Gubbio height-increasing sneaker +1.6''

Everyday urban comfort.

The urban sneaker that combines the elegance of a dress shoe with the comfort of a sports shoe, designed for all active days. The Gubbio embodies this contemporary versatility: black leather with a deep grain, a signature metal plate discreetly embossed on the side, decorative perforations that add texture to the silhouette, four-eyelet lace-up closure, and a two-tone white-and-black rubber sole with solid grip. A pair that works with raw denim, dark chinos and a shirt, or canvas trousers with a knit sweater — for all the days when comfort is non-negotiable.

Grained black leather, a discreet signature. The black leather covers the entire upper, with a deep grain that catches the light and gives the silhouette character. The embossed metal plate on the side and the decorative perforations add that touch of identity that sets the Gubbio apart from a standard urban sneaker — a subtle detail for a pair that prefers restraint over ostentation.

A lightweight polyurethane lift, a treaded sole. Inside, the polyurethane lift combines lightness and durability for invisible comfort from morning to night. The synthetic lining hugs the foot and allows air to circulate. Underneath, the rubber outsole provides a firm grip on all surfaces, quiet in the city and stable in all conditions. And the anatomical wedge sole subtly improves posture — back straight, shoulders open, confident stride.

Mario Bertulli craftsmanship, adapted to urban wear. Like all our models, the Gubbio secretly gives you +1.6'' thanks to a completely invisible internal lift. What sets it apart: this balance between the comfort of a sporty sneaker and the finish of a dress shoe, in the most versatile black colorway in the men’s wardrobe. You’re not just wearing a height-boosting sneaker — you’re wearing the black essential that goes everywhere with you, signed with over fifty years of Italian craftsmanship.

A pair that takes you from your morning coffee to an evening stroll, from the commute to the office to a relaxed weekend, in comfort that is never negotiable.
