Light, without taking anything away from it.
Light elegance.
The city sneaker that redefines urban style with a bold silhouette and clean lines. The Riva Brown takes a route few height-increasing sneakers dare to take: absolute lightness, even though it discreetly hides 7.5 cm of lift. A supple, perforated brown full-grain leather upper on the sides that hugs the foot and lets it breathe, a chocolate suede heel counter that adds durability and character, a discreet lacing system for a snug fit, and a wide white sole that delivers the cushioning of a sports sneaker with the finish of a quality shoe — without ever weighing down your stride.
Light, without taking anything away from it. That is the rarest promise in a height-increasing sneaker, and it is the one the Riva keeps. Its wide white sole, which adds 7.5 cm of height, is not felt on the foot: it glides, it supports, it cushions — but it does not weigh. The perforated full-grain leather on the sides makes the upper even lighter and lets the foot breathe with every step. The result: a natural stride, from morning to evening, without ever feeling the height.
Two premium materials, a singular character.
Two premium materials, a singular character. The brown full-grain leather with its clean grain against the warm, sturdy chocolate suede: the contrast sculpts the silhouette, adds character to the line, and gives the Riva its identity. The leather-lined interior with breathable lining keeps the foot dry from morning to evening. And the anatomical wedge sole discreetly straightens posture — back straight, shoulders open, a confident look with every step.
Mario Bertulli craftsmanship, applied to lightness. Like all our models, the Riva secretly gives you +7.5 cm thanks to a completely invisible internal lift. What sets it apart: that rare feeling of walking taller without ever feeling the height — style and presence, without ever sacrificing comfort. You are not simply wearing a height-increasing sneaker — you are wearing the sneaker that grows without being seen, and that does not weigh you down.
A pair that accompanies you from a long day in the city to a night out with friends, from your morning coffee to aperitifs on the terrace, without ever making its weight felt.
