ORTICA CALF

Ortica Calf is a refined reinterpretation of the classic longwing derby, crafted in smooth black calfskin leather and detailed with traditional brogue perforations. The clean yet distinctive silhouette highlights the quality of the materials and the depth of the craftsmanship, making it the perfect choice for men who value elegance with character.

The full leather lining ensures a breathable and enveloping fit, while the chunky rubber sole with tread provides traction and stability, even in wet or unpredictable conditions. The shoe is built using the Blake construction, a hallmark of Italian shoemaking, offering flexibility, durability, and a sleek profile ideal for all-day urban wear.

Designed for the modern gentleman who prefers understated sophistication, Ortica Calf transitions effortlessly from tailored business attire to more casual outfits. Whether paired with flannel trousers or a structured coat, it offers a smart, versatile option for colder seasons and daily city life.

The name Ortica pays homage to the Milanese district of the same name—once a working-class area, now a symbol of creative revitalisation. A fitting name for a shoe that blends tradition with contemporary attitude.

Also available in blue suede calfskin for those who favour a softer, more textured interpretation of the same silhouette, while preserving the balance between sartorial tradition and contemporary character.
