DIEMME ROCCIA VET BOOTS. Retail 500$, 260$ shipped

Fabric
Smooth Waxy Mohawk
Color
Cobalt
Sole
White Cristy

BRAND NEW WITH BOX, SIZE 40 EU, 7.5 US, NAVY DISTRESSED SUEDE. RETAIL PRICE WAS 500$.
Tagged ad 7.5US but fit more like a 7 or even 6.5, so they fit small. I'm a 39IT in Common Projects and a 40 in Nike and they fit me well, could be a little bit longer actually.

Info
The Roccia Vet is a style originally found in the Calzaturificio Diemme hunting collection, that has been updated with lighter and more comfortable soles for city use. This style has great ankle support and padded inner lining which gives stability and a comfortable and protected walk. It is featured here in the Smooth Waxy Mohawk from UK tannery Charles F Stead & Co., which is a distressed suede where CF Stead has brought out as much of the natural features in the raw material as possible, and combined these methods with the shrunken fibre and wax impregnation of their Waxed Commander leather quality, creating a unique appearance with tremendous character.

The Vibram Cristy is a historical Vibram design reintroduced in the Vibram Morflex micro-cellular soling compound. Vibram Morflex is 1/3 the weight of composition rubber, and provides maximal lightness combined with high flexibility and bounce. This sole has excellent slip-resistance on floors, but will be slippery on ice due to its high flexibility. The sole is cemented and welted with "ideal stitching" which is a turned out doublestitch.

The inner lining is made of cow leather instead of pig leather for increased comfort, and the footbed is of vegetable latex with a leather upper lining. A gusseted leather tongue with vegetable latex padding will keep water from permeating the top of the boot, and the padding creates a soft cushion over the instep. The hardware is from Italian supplier Sammi, and the laces are reflective laces from German supplier CKS.

All components are of Italian origin. Handmade in Onè di Fonte, Italy.
