Overview: the simple, comfortable suede moc boot
The Pitas Coimbra is a men's casual suede ankle boot that mixes the moc-toe apron with a flat, light sole. It is a mid-shaft lace-up boot, with a padded collar and an informal but well-kept look.
It is made for anyone who wants comfortable, easy-to-wear footwear for everyday wear, with a touch of colour in the details.
Design and style: moc toe and orange details
The design rests on smooth suede, a moc-toe apron stitched to the toe with visible stitching, a padded fabric collar and round laces with an orange thread. On the heel there is a small decorative orange thread, and on the side the PITAS-TEX label.
The sole is flat rubber, with a stitched edge around the shoe and a grey-brown tone that accompanies the coffee suede.
Materials and finish
The outer is suede, a leather with a velvety surface that shows small variations in tone as the nap is brushed. It is a usual effect in this material and is part of its character.
The sole is light, flexible rubber, with a flat profile that eases the step.
How to care for suede
Suede has a velvety touch that is cared for with a specific brush: brushing it is enough to lift the nap and remove dust, and a suede eraser removes light marks.
It is worth protecting it with a suede spray before first wear and avoiding excess water.
Everyday comfort
The comfort of this model rests on the flat, flexible sole, a comfortable last and a padded collar that does not rub. The laces let you adjust the fit over the instep.
Like any leather footwear, it adapts to the foot over the first weeks of wear. It is worth trying them on with the socks you will wear in winter.
For which occasions
These are boots for autumn and winter: everyday city life, the casual office, travel, weekends and casual clothes.
For heavy rain, snow or hiking there are more specific shoes; for urban and mid-season use they are a comfortable option.
How to wear them
With dark jeans or chinos, coffee suede looks natural and warm. With corduroy or wool trousers, it adds a classic air. It goes well with navy, grey, green, beige and off-white.
On top, parkas, wool jackets, coats and chunky knitted jumpers all work.
Our opinion at Calzados Vesga
Our verdict is very positive: it is a comfortable, light casual ankle boot that is easy to match, with a good-looking suede and discreet colour details. It delivers what it promises as everyday footwear.
For anyone who wants a simple, casual ankle boot for everyday wear, it is a very safe choice.
Size guide and fit
The model comes in EU sizes 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 and 46. The last is comfortable, with a rounded toe. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger, especially with a wide foot or thick socks.
To measure, stand with your heel against a wall, measure to your longest toe and leave 5 to 10 mm of room. That space stops the toes touching the end and lets the foot swell during the day. The laces will let you adjust the room over the instep.
Care and cleaning
Brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dust and take off light marks with a suede eraser. If they get wet, let them dry at room temperature, away from radiators and heaters.
Do not machine-wash them or submerge them. Clean the sole with a brush and a damp cloth. Store them with paper inside so they keep their shape.
Before you decide
They may not be what you want if you need waterproof or dress footwear or a lug sole. They are not sold as waterproof, and the suede should be protected with a spray.
They are perfect if you want a comfortable, simple casual suede ankle boot for everyday autumn and winter use.
