Velasca continues its tradition of artisanal shoemaking with the Umbrelèe Desert Boot, a refined yet relaxed staple designed for men who value craftsmanship as much as style. Handcrafted in Montegranaro, Italy—a region renowned for its shoemaking excellence—the Umbrelèe elevates the classic desert boot into something far more enduring.

Made from premium suede calf leather, the boot boasts a velvety finish achieved by carefully buffing the innermost layer of leather. Each hide is inspected by artisans, who eliminate imperfections before shaping and cutting it to form the boot’s sleek upper. The process includes brushing to revive the nap, hammering seams for softness, and attaching the lining with meticulous precision.

The construction showcases visible Rapid stitching, an external seam that not only enhances the boot’s casual aesthetic but also improves insulation and durability. Lined in natural calf leather and paired with a para rubber sole and heel, the Velasca Umbrelèe is built for comfort and long wear, while maintaining the easy versatility desert boots are known for.

Priced at $280, this dark brown desert boot strikes the perfect balance between rugged casual and understated sophistication. From denim weekends to smart-casual nights out, the Velasca Umbrelèe proves that true style begins with detail—and detail begins with the hand of a craftsman.
