Belmonte Black Size:UK-7 ** US-8 ** EU-41 With nods to workwear garmentsOur new Belmonte is a formal brogue with a deceptively high level of comfort. It is made in our artisan Italian factory on a Bologna construction, which uses a soft leather sock, instead of the normal stiff insole board, and a deerskin upper renowned for its supple comfort. The upper is then meticulously polished by hand. We have used a slightly squared toe giving a retro 1950s look on an OS thumbprint sole, with a full calf leather lining and insock.
