Pencil heel, 2.5 inchesMid-calf shaft, side zip Super lightweightHow the boot is built Built to be repairedOutsole and heel tips renewed
Materials
Full-grain leather on the upper, the top layer of the hide, so it takes on patina instead of cracking. Cherry-red soft-leather lining, edge to edge. Soft leather, not suede. Slim leather ankle strap with a metal buckle, and the Fabbruccio medallion on the outside of the shaft.
Construction
Super lightweight construction on a rubber outsole. Handmade in small runs.
Heel and silhouette
Two and a half inch pencil heel, tapered to a small footprint at the floor. Mid-calf shaft with a full-length side zip, and a slim ankle strap that buckles at the outside. Pointed toe.
Care and repair
Wipe with a damp cloth and condition the leather now and then. The collection is built to be repaired: when the rubber outsole or the heel tips wear, any quality cobbler can renew them.
The heel

Two and a half inches, tapered to a point.

The pencil heel narrows the whole way down to a small footprint at the floor. From behind it is what sets the line of the boot, and it is the reason the Cleopatra reads differently from every other shape in the collection.

The lining

The signature is on the inside.

A cherry-red soft-leather lining, edge to edge, showing at the collar once the boot is on. It is the same red inside every Fabbruccio. Soft leather rather than suede, so it breathes and softens with wear.

The build

Built light, and built to be repaired.

Super lightweight construction, on a rubber outsole. The outsole and the heel tips are the parts that wear, and a cobbler can renew both. The collection is built to be repaired rather than replaced.
