BERLUTI
latest addition to the brand’s sneaker collection, is inspired by the essential lines of 1970’s running shoes. With its thick bicolour rubber outsole and geometric heel, the shoes’ aesthetic is explored by playing with the palette, materials, and details. The leather layering is rich in its assertive tones. Giving the shoe more character is the decorative all-around zig-zag stitching sourced from Berluti’s archive. More than just a stylish item, the lightweight quality of the sneakers provides comfort to wearers.
There are three available versions of Fly. Two of them use leather layered with strips of laminated silver leather, using the dominant colour of either white or black. The other version that stands out among all of the offerings is the Venezia rendition. Adorned with classic TDM Intenso patina sports black leather strips and perforated details on the side, this pair perfectly showcases the smooth hybrid between the classical tradition of the brand and its contemporary attitude. Because of its hybrid character, the sneakers can be used in a myriad of ways. Suitable to be paired with relaxed and casual looks or with smart casual to more formal ensembles, the Fly Venezia is always meant to be outstanding.

The result is a hybrid feeling of having the best of both worlds. Featuring an impressive colour-scheme, the lines are subtly unstructured, while the tailoring silhouette is cut soft and relaxed. This neo-suiting style mixes formality and casualness. The clothing pieces are completed with accessories in the same spirit. One that definitely must not miss your radar is the footwear.
Among Berluti’s specialties, from platformed derby to squared-toe brogues, the new sneakers shout out loud with a hybrid soul. Fly, the
