The Raffaello has a very elegant and unique look. This style is distinguished by the zipper placed diagonally on the inside of the front of the leg. Standard features of the Raffaello include WRAT leather, a stitched Vibram sole, a titanium zipper, a reinforced outer shaft, and endless customization options. This style offers a high level of durability and comfort thanks to the high-quality Italian calf leather. Like all other De Niro high boots, this style is handcrafted.

A variation on the standard Raffaello model is the Bellini model. The Bellini model has a narrower ankle, but otherwise, the two models are identical. However, we only recommend this tapered ankle for calf size M or smaller. For calf size L or larger, a Bellini ankle will not improve the boots' proportions.

Please note that to ensure the best fit, any Raffaello order placed through us in a calf size of XXXS, XXS, XS, S or M will be placed at the factory with the Bellini ankle! Any Raffaello order placed through us in a calf size of L, XL or XXL will be placed at the factory with the standard Raffaello ankle! The outer shell of the Rafaello boot is the standard model, unlike the Bellini, which is comfortable on the outside.

Brushed Leather Warranty 

These boots are (partially) made of brushed leather. Because this type of leather is more susceptible to damage, it can become dull with frequent use or improper handling. The De Niro factory can repair some damage, but please note that the warranty on brushed leather boots is more limited. De Niro recommends using brushed leather boots only for competitions and clinics.

These are custom-made riding boots. Delivery time: approximately 8 weeks.
