Style, Off-Duty

The best shoes in your wardrobe are not always the ones you wear to be seen. Sometimes they are the ones you reach out for without thinking; on a relaxed Saturday morning, between plans, when you want both comfort and elegance. Santoni's Off-Duty sneaker was built for precisely this.

The Off-Duty is, at its heart, a reinterpretation of Santoni's heritage through a contemporary lens - the codes of the classic Derby lace-up, distilled into something clean, minimal and entirely at ease with itself. Crafted from exceptionally soft Carezza nubuck or Lieve leather and finished with Santoni's signature Velatura color-graded technique, the upper carries the personality of a house that has been perfecting leather craft for decades. The Arancio Santoni Sigillo stitch which is subtle, distinctive and unmistakable to those who know, completes the picture.

With the Off-Duty, elasticated laces and a rear pull tab make it effortless to wear, while the rubber cupsole delivers comfort and flexibility without compromising on the silhouette. The result is a sneaker that glides easily through a coastal walk or a weekend brunch.

The name Off-Duty is, it turns out, slightly misleading - this sneaker is always working.

The Off-Duty sneaker is available at Santoni boutiques and at santoni.com
