The Portofino in Shadow is Koio’s elevated take on the classic plimsoll—minimalist, monochrome, and made for everyday wear. Handcrafted in Italy from black full-grain calf leather, it features a light, breathable construction lined only at the ankle. The tonal rubber sole is Strobel-constructed for optimum flexibility and long-lasting comfort. Style it with black chinos and a charcoal knit polo, or dress it down with dark denim and a crisp white tee.

  • Handmade in Tuscany, Italy
  • Constructed from LWG-certified Italian calf leather
  • Set on a 100% rubber sole (50% natural, 40% recycled, 10% conventional)
  • Threaded with waxed cotton laces
  • Fitted with a removable OrthoLite® Hybrid™ insole

  • Fits true to size. Take your normal US size.
  • Only available in full sizes. Go down to the nearest whole size if you wear a half size.
  • Width B - Standard
  • Unlined construction, has a soft feel and a slightly more relaxed fit than the Capri model.
  • Width can be adjusted by tightening/loosening the laces.

KOIO How To Measure Your Foot

Follow these simple steps to find your perfect size. You'll need a ruler and a sheet of paper.

1. Place the sheet of paper against a wall or straight edge.

2. Position one foot along the sheet of paper, pressed against the wall.

3. Align a ruler beside your foot.

4. Measure the length in centimeters or inches from the tip of your longest toe.

5. Repeat the process for your other foot.

The measurements reflect the maximum length foot that fits into each size. Therefore, you want your foot measurement to be slightly shorter than or equal to the size you choose, depending on how much room you like to have in your shoes.

    Portofino in Triple White 13 (US) / 46 (EU)
    Rated 4 out of 5 stars
    Nice Minimalist Casual Shoe

    I was looking for a shoe to replace the (discontinued) leather Vans Era that I've been buying for years. The Era's were always "just ok" because they only lasted a few months due to the soles not being sewn to the uppers and the cheap material on the inside. But at $70 a pop I could live with the flaws.

    After the Era's disappeared, the hunt was on for a shoe with a similar silhouette. I landed on the Portofino because I prefer less eyelets that what are on the Capris or CP achilles.

    So far these Portofino's are great. The outside leather is soft, the insole is comfortable and the construction of the shoe is high grade. Time will tell how they wear.

    I took off a star because the right foot feels like the arch is slightly higher and causes more pressure on my foot. I expect this will resolve itself in time as the shoes get more broken in. So far I'd guess I have about 30-40 hours of wear time and they have softened up a bit since they were brand new.

    I'd buy more of these in different color ways. Something like brown with a gum sole would be nice.

    Thank you so much for your detailed review! Our Portofinos are one of our most comfortable styles, as the unlined leather gives an ultra-soft feel, and molds to the foot wonderfully. We appreciate your feedback!

    Love supporting this brand. I really like their leather sneakers and have bought several pairs over the last few years. Clean lines and colors and the fit is super appealing. Highly recommend and if you are in NYC, check out their brick and mortar store!
