Who decreed that philosophy should remain confined to dusty books or lecture halls filled with people nodding their heads in disillusionment? What if, instead of simply meditating on the meaning of life, we decided to walk proudly toward the light, wearing our boldest ideas and our most Patriarchal boots? This is how the Platone was born, a boot that not only dresses your feet, but also elevates your neurons—and your figure—thanks to its 5.5 cm heel - a major asset.

The nubuck used by Patricia is an excellent quality leather, but like all fine materials, it requires regular maintenance. If you want your shoes to always be in excellent condition, it is important to waterproof the nubuck before first use, and then frequently if you want to keep them in good condition. Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and water. If the material bleaches, it is recommended to use a suede renovating spray that matches the color of your shoe. Be careful to only waterproof nubuck because glitter does not require any special maintenance other than constant attention and love. Don't wait too long to have a shoe pad fitted to your soles by an experienced shoemaker. Areas to avoid when wearing Patricia: Amazon, Sahara, Tundra, Arctic Circle, punk concerts, shooting galleries, bowling alleys, New York Marathon, subway on strike days, extremist party meetings.
