In the 1960s, the Beatles popularized this classic: the Chelsea boot. However, they wore a model with a higher heel that tapered towards the toe cap. The Chelsea was designed in the 1830s by J. S. Hall, Queen Victoria's shoemaker. The reason why the shoe has not lost its popularity to this day is not only due to its timelessly elegant look, but also its high level of comfort. In addition to the ankle-high shape, the rubber inserts on the sides are typical of the Chelsea. They give the shoe its elasticity and comfort, ensuring that it sits comfortably on the foot even after hours of wear. Punto Pigro uses vegetable-tanned calf leather for the upper of this sporty Chelsea boot, which is robust and hard-wearing, yet supple and elastic. The lining and insole are also made from soft calfskin, which ensures a balanced foot climate. The strong crepe sole made of natural rubber provides good grip, cushions the footfall and keeps out the cold. All in all: the ideal everyday companion - not just in the cooler months.

Montegranaro in the Marche region, an important location for Italian shoe manufacturing, is home to the relatively young Punto Pigro label. Founded in 2000, it took the traditional footwear craft of the Secchiaris (their family had been active in the industry since 1975) and added new ideas and influences. For example, part of Punto Pigro’s collection features a special seam that goes back to the moccasins of the native inhabitants of North America. What’s more, the brand focuses on high-quality leathers, traditional handicrafts and a casual style in the design of its models.
