De Niro Raffaello · Vanita Brushed Black

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 Vanità gives the Raffaello dressage boot a black-on-black formality with a glint of light: the leg is brushed black calfskin, the shaped Rondine top collar is cut in Odi leather, and a line of Swarovski Golden Shadow crystals warms the top edge. Heel and foot are finished in Wrat black, so the boot reads as one deep, even black until the crystals catch.

• Brushed black calfskin over a full natural-calf lining
• Rondine top collar in Odi leather, set with Swarovski Golden Shadow
• Wrat-black heel and foot
• YKK 9 mm zip on the front inside of the leg
• Fishbone backstrip, medium counterfort and a standard outer-leg reinforcement
• Removable activated-carbon insole; leather sole with a double-stitched Vibram outsole
