We construct the Roman using our Blake construction method. Favored for decades in Italy, Blake construction allows for maximum wear while still providing the comfort of a lighter, more flexible shoe. Shoes with blake construction are easily resoled, adding to their longevity.
When going for an informal look, opt for brown or black monk strap shoes with dark colored jeans. You can dress it up and create a more complex look by choosing a leather with a bit of shine, paired with stand out accessories like a matching belt.

expert craftmanship
the zelli difference
In Tuscany, shoemaking is more than a trade—it’s an art passed down through generations. Skilled artisans meticulously cut, stitch, and shape each pair by hand, using time-honored techniques that ensure precision and durability. From selecting the finest full-grain leathers to hand-finishing every detail, the craftsmanship reflects a dedication to quality that mass production simply cannot replicate. The result? Shoes that are not only beautifully made but designed to last a lifetime.
"I’ve owned many luxury shoes, but nothing compares to the craftsmanship of Zelli. The leather is buttery soft, the fit is impeccable, and the attention to detail is second to none. You can feel the quality in every step. These are more than just shoes—they're an investment in timeless style." – James R.
"The best shoes are made in Italy, and Zelli Italia is right there at the top of Italian brands available in the US. Love these shoes."
