De Niro L458

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 L458 takes De Niro's supple calfskin and adds movement where a jumping boot needs it most. A Moto-Flex insert of stretch calfskin runs across the foot, letting the leather give as your ankle folds and drawing the boot into a close, second-skin fit. The line stays plain and elegant; the comfort is in the flex you feel rather than see.

• Supple high-grade calfskin, fully lined in natural calfskin
• Moto-Flex stretch-calfskin foot for a forgiving, close fit
• Toe cap with a bottom zip guard
• YKK 9 mm rear zip
• Removable activated-carbon insole
• Full leather sole, double-stitched to a Vibram outsole

Fit. Built to order in Italy, usually within 4–5 weeks. Set your foot size, then the leg: Standard uses De Niro's height and calf chart, Tall · X-Tall lengthens it for £35, and full Made to Measure works to your seven measurements for £160. The elasticated Moto-Flex foot keeps the fit close however you order — the Fit Finder does the sizing.
