Alma Knee Boot, Black Suede

$987

Size Chart: Alma Knee Boot

A tall shaft with a regular calf. Size 38 (US 7.5): shaft height 41.2 cm / 16.2 in, calf circumference 39.3 cm / 15.5 in. Shaft height is measured from the top of the sole; calf circumference at the widest point of the boot. Both increase by roughly 0.7–1 cm per size.

To check the calf: standing, measure around the widest part of your calf. A boot 1–2 cm larger than your measurement sits close but comfortably; more than that gives room for trousers.

Size conversion & foot length

Italian sizing typically runs narrow. To find your size, measure the length of your foot from heel to toe with your heel flush against a wall, and match it to the chart. Each measurement corresponds to one size. If you fall exactly on a boundary, take the larger size.

Italian craftsmanship

Every pair is made by hand in our family-owned factory in Italy, using techniques passed down through generations of artisan shoemakers. The leathers are Italian, chosen for their softness and enduring qualities, and each shoe is designed on a last shaped for comfort from the first step.

It is a slower way to make shoes, with several skilled artisans working on each step by hand. Our refined aesthetic requires precise assembly, a process we entrust only to our most experienced makers.
