Materials

Full-grain leather on the upper, the top layer of the hide, uncorrected and uncoated, so it takes on patina instead of cracking. Cherry-red soft-leather lining, edge to edge. Soft leather, not suede.

Construction

Super lightweight construction, which is what keeps a boot this size from weighing what it looks like it weighs. Rubber outsole. Not Goodyear-welted; that is Florence, and only Florence.

Heel and silhouette

Four inch heel on a one inch platform, so the foot sits at a three inch rise. Mid-calf shaft with a side zip, flush studs set in a vertical line, and the house mark on the strap.

Care and repair

Wipe with a damp cloth and condition the leather now and then. The collection is built to be repaired: when a heel tip or a lift wears, any quality cobbler can replace it.

The platform

Four inches of heel. Three inches of rise.

The heel measures four inches. The platform under the toe measures one. What your foot actually sits at is the difference, a three inch rise, which is the entire reason the platform is there. The arithmetic is the design.

The lining

The signature is on the inside.

A cherry-red soft-leather lining, edge to edge. It is the one note of color in an otherwise quiet object, and it is the same red inside every Fabbruccio boot. Soft leather rather than suede, so it breathes and softens with wear.

Built light

Light for the size of it.

Super lightweight construction. This is a tall boot on a platform and it still weighs very little in the hand. When the heel tip finally wears down, a cobbler replaces it rather than the boot. The whole collection is made to be repaired.

Questions

Are platform boots comfortable for long days?

Yes. Unlike traditional heels that concentrate weight on the ball of your foot, Valentina's platform distributes weight evenly. The front platform reduces the effective heel pitch, making the 4-inch total height feel like walking in 2-inch heels.

How do I care for the mixed materials?

The leather portions clean with damp cloth and conditioner. The suede upper requires gentle brushing with a suede brush. We include care instructions with every pair to maintain both materials beautifully.

How does the sizing run?

True to size, so order your usual US size, half sizes included. Built on a wider last (wider calf, wider ankle, deeper toe box), so if you are between sizes, size up. Exchanges are free.

When will it ship?

In stock. Ships in 1 to 2 business days. Free US shipping, no minimum. Every pair arrives in protective packaging with a care card.

What if I do not love them?

Wear them, walk in them, decide over 60 days from delivery. If they are not for you, send them back with free return shipping, no questions asked. Free US shipping both ways.

Find your size

Every Fabbruccio boot is built on a wider last, wider calf, wider ankle, deeper toe box, and runs true to size. If you are between sizes, size up. Measure in the evening, heel to longest toe, using the larger foot.

Wider calf fit. If luxury boots have felt narrow in the calf before, these fit differently. If you are unsure about calf fit, reach out before ordering and we will help.
