The navy colourway of CALTO's pebble grain leather snoafer — the alternative to black for anyone who wears more blue and grey, on the same 2.6-inch height-increasing build.
Highlights
✓
Navy pebble grain leather — dark enough to cover the same ground as the black version but easier with grey trousers, denim and brown belts, where black sits awkwardly.
✓
2.6 inches of total height increase, 1 inch of it in the outer heel — an integrated insole carries the rest. The 5-inch shaft keeps the collar under the ankle bone, which is the spec that decides whether a lifted shoe shows.
✓
Leather upper and leather lining at 14 ounces — CALTO states leather for both, so there is leather against the foot as well as on the outside.
✓
Cement construction — so this is not a shoe you resole. The sole is glued to the upper rather than welted, which keeps the weight down, but when the rubber wears through the shoe is finished.
✓
Half sizes at 8.5, 9.5 and 10.5, standard D / medium width, up to a US 12.
Navy is the quietest colour in this series. Black reads more formal and off-white reads seasonal; navy sits in between and is the one to pick if a single pair has to cover work, weekends and travel. All five colourways share the last, the leather, the 2.6-inch build, the 14-ounce weight and the 6-12 run — black on black, black on a white sole, off-white, navy, and grey. Choose on colour and be done.
