A men's platform sneaker designed for everyday wear

Edition 11 offers a structured men's sneaker inspired by the 1980s, without falling into nostalgia. The platform sole is not a stylistic gimmick—it's a way to anchor the foot without restricting it. This sole elevates the silhouette without distorting it. It improves walking comfort while keeping the line stable. The design remains simple, with no unnecessary ornamentation. The proportions are adjusted for daily wear without visual overload. The fit is precise. The foot feels secure, even after hours of wear.

This men's sneaker is made for those seeking balance—visual presence and controlled functionality. It doesn't try to stand out but to blend into a sober wardrobe built to last.

A stable line, inspired but uncompromising

The design draws inspiration from 1980s sneakers, but everything has been reworked for modern use. Proportions are contained. Height is balanced by a sole that's light yet dense. Panels are kept to a minimum. The leather is taut, with no extra thickness or forced visual effects. The shoe maintains structure. It adapts to urban walking, with solid cushioning and minimal fatigue.

The platform introduces a slight forward tilt, easing the stride. This is not a decorative sneaker. It’s designed for regular wear—for the body, not just for show. It works on hard surfaces, indoors and outdoors, with no bounce effect or excessive stiffness. Foot roll is smooth and natural. Weight is well distributed. Posture is lifted without strain. These subtle details build a model’s long-term reliability.

Responsible materials and controlled production

All materials used in this men's sneaker are selected for durability and reduced environmental impact. The leather is LWG-certified, chosen for its ability to hold shape and appearance even with wear. It doesn’t stretch, crack, or become artificially glossy. The lining, also in leather, is breathable and non-slip—even without socks.

The sole is made of dense rubber, designed to absorb shocks without collapsing. It doesn’t twist or wear unevenly. Its wear is slow, regular, and controlled. Assembly is done in Portugal, in workshops known for production consistency. Each pair is inspected before shipping. Lines must remain sharp, and finishes invisible to the naked eye.

These manufacturing gestures are rare today. They reflect years of expertise—not just a marketing promise.

A sober and coherent men's wardrobe

Edition 11 fits naturally into a structured wardrobe: straight trousers, raw denim, or classic-cut chinos. The sole height visually opens the leg without disrupting proportions. The line doesn’t break the silhouette—it extends the body’s movement. This men’s sneaker is easy to wear at the office, on weekends, while traveling, or for active days.

It blends into the outfit without drawing attention. It supports your style without imposing it. It’s not a disruptive piece, but a stable anchor. You wear it because you know how it performs—not to chase trends. Those who’ve tried it praise its reliability, fit, and lasting consistency.

It’s that repeated wear that builds trust in a model. And it’s that trust that earns it a lasting place in your wardrobe.

Care instructions

Dry clean after each wear. For stains, use a leather-specific cleansing milk. Hydrate the leather every 6 to 8 weeks with a neutral balm—sparingly. Let dry in the open air, away from heat or direct sunlight. Clean the sole with a damp cloth.

Avoid abrasive products or stiff brushes. Store your sneakers in a well-ventilated place. Use shoe trees if possible. Don’t wear them multiple days in a row—let materials breathe. These simple gestures help preserve the shoe’s structure and appearance over time.
