JULIE - ANKLE SOCK BOOT - BLACK NAPPA STRETCH

DETAILS

• Upper: Exceptionally soft black nappa stretch eco-leather.

• Lining: Black leather around the foot and soft black stretch fabric along the leg and calf.

• Insole: Flexible at the forefoot to support the foot’s natural rolling motion as you walk. A soft, non-removable footbed made from polyurethane and recycled rubber is integrated above the structural insole, providing lasting cushioning and maximum all-day comfort. Its exceptionally low compression rate (< 5%) ensures optimal comfort every time you slip on your boots. This open-cell foam technology, also used in sneakers, offers effective ventilation and moisture management to create a cooler, drier and healthier environment for your feet. The entire insole is covered and finished in leather for an elegant look.

• Outsole: A thicker rubber outsole with an anti-slip tread provides extra grip, ideal for winter days. Its refined design preserves the ankle boot’s elegant silhouette.

• Toe: Pointed with a slightly squared tip.

• Fastening: An inner side zip makes the boots easy to put on and take off.

• Details: Designed to resemble an elegant pump worn with a sock, these ankle boots are crafted entirely from the same nappa stretch eco-leather and finished with black stitching.

• Heel shape: A sculptural kitten heel with a glossy black lacquered finish. The flared base offers broader contact with the ground and helps prevent your heel from getting caught in gaps. Thoughtfully designed from the ground up, elegant with every step.

• Heel height: 3 cm in size 37; a few millimetres higher in larger sizes.

• Production: Handmade in Italy.

FITTING

Inspired by our bestselling Katleen and Laura slingbacks, these ankle boots offer exactly the same fit. They are shaped on a comfortable last with extra room at the widest part of the foot, where it flexes as you walk. This gives your toes space to sit naturally alongside one another, despite the pointed silhouette.

The combination of soft, supple materials inside and out, extra room across the forefoot and seamlessly integrated sneaker-style insoles makes these boots comfortable for narrow, regular and wide feet.

SIZE GUIDE

For narrow and regular feet: choose one size smaller than your usual shoe size.

For wide feet: choose your usual shoe size.

This model is particularly well suited to women with a high instep, as the stretchy nappa eco-leather gently adapts to the shape of your foot.

SHOE CARE

Before the first wear, protect the eco-leather with a colourless, water-repellent spray suitable for this material, such as an appropriate product from Nanex. Test on an inconspicuous area first and apply to dry shoes.

Avoid contact with materials that may transfer colour, oil-based products such as makeup, alcohol-based products such as perfume, solvents and abrasive cleaners. Allow damp boots to dry at room temperature, away from direct heat.
