De Niro Bellini · Infinito

It's DeNiro's listed made-to-measure fee. It pays for your boots to be cut on a one-off pattern built from your twelve measurements (six points on each leg) rather than a standard last — and it's what lets us include the measurement review, photo checks and your Fit Promise at no extra charge.

Only need extra height, not a full custom pattern? Tall and X-Tall are a separate £35 DeNiro option.

The Bellini in the Infinito collezione layers three tones on a brushed navy leg: the Gemma design tops the leg in Infinito Sky, fine details pick it out in Sinax Grigio, and the heel and foot are set in a deep Wrat Oceano. It is one of the more expressive Bellinis, yet the palette stays within the blues so it reads as elegant rather than loud.
