Story & heritage
Berluti’s product page calls the Playtime an iconic men’s shoe and frames it as a sneaker with a new design and improved comfort. The important detail is small but deliberate: three hand stitches between sole and upper nod to the house’s bootmaking savoir-faire.
The Playtime gives Berluti a casual counterpoint to Alessandro and Andy — a plain sneaker that still carries the house’s leather work and side detailing borrowed from formal shoes.
Materials & craft
The Playtime is made in Italy from supple calf leather with incollato construction, lateral stitching, padded leather lining and a flexible rubber outsole. The side pinched-leather detail recalls traditional formal shoes.
How to choose & style
White is the cleanest daily version and works with denim, summer tailoring or linen trousers. Patinated or signature versions make the sneaker more obviously Berluti; keep trousers simple so the hand-stitch detail stays visible.
