A micro-perforated leatherette low-top in black on a height-increasing insole — at 13 ounces the lightest shoe in CALTO's range, and the least expensive.
Highlights
✓
13 ounces at US 7.5 — the lightest of CALTO's height-increasing styles. The J193 snoafers and the G3304 mid-top are 14, the H0831 is 16. On a shoe carrying an internal insole, three ounces is a difference you feel by evening.
✓
The listing title says two inches taller — but the spec list gives no lift figure at all. CALTO describes the insole only as providing "discreet height", and never states how much. If the exact figure decides the purchase, ask us to confirm it before you order.
✓
Micro-perforated leatherette upper, cloth-lined. Leatherette — not leather, and CALTO says so plainly. The perforation is a surface pattern; the listing does not claim it as a ventilation spec, so don't buy it expecting mesh-level airflow.
✓
1-inch heel, 5-inch shaft, rubber sole on cement construction — the lowest visible profile in the range alongside the H0831, and the flattest-looking of the sneakers.
✓
Whole sizes 6 to 13, standard D / medium width. It reaches a 13 where the J193 snoafers stop at 12 — but there are no half sizes here, and no E, EE or 4E fitting.
This is the entry point to CALTO's height-increasing range and the one to try first if you haven't worn an elevator shoe before: the least lift, the lowest weight and the lowest price, so there is less to get used to and less committed if you don't like it. Against the rest: the H0831 is the same low-top idea at 2.6 inches and three ounces heavier, the J193 series snoafers move up to real leather and a slip-on shape at nearly twice the price, and the G3304 and Q392 push the lift to three inches in athletic builds. Wear this with joggers, jeans or shorts — the plain black leatherette keeps it quiet enough for a casual office.
