Forget what you thought you knew about the mule. The 90s style is back in a big way, and Diemme’s Maggiore embodies everything we love about this unexpected resurgence. Let’s face it: the mule needed a lil’ update. For better or worse, the style dominated the Y2K era – with everyone and their dog (not to mention Carrie Bradshaw) rocking the style in some form or another. The Maggiore reimagines the mule for the 2020s with the help of some truly special materials and a timeless design driven by function above all else.
The Maggiore exists at the intersection of mule and sneaker, providing superior versatility in a streamlined, lace-less package. The practically non-existent back is virtually the only common thread between this shoe and its predecessors, as Diemme has succeeded in creating an easy-to-wear silhouette that resists categorization. The first thing you’ll notice here is a Vibram Chopper outsole – which, while we wouldn’t recommend it for summitting any mountains or slogging through mud, will provide you with a superior grip on wet sidewalks and slippery stairs.
The next thing you’ll notice is just how unique each of our new arrivals look and feel thanks to the array of excellent materials Diemme selected for this undertaking. So, let’s tackle each style individually, shall we? The understated sleeper hit of the bunch is the ‘Sand’ colourway. While we wouldn’t exactly call any of these shoes “subdued”, this iteration pairs off-white Italian Suede with a tonal beige outsole for a more neutral take. The grey-green mesh lining delivers the knockout punch, with cut-out detailing adding a bit more breathability for when you need it.
For those seeking a statement piece to add to their spring-summer footwear roster, look no further than the two BYBORRE pairs on offer. Dutch textile innovators BYBORRE have been generating a ton of buzz in industry circles lately, and it doesn’t surprise us in the slightest to see them link up with the boundary-pushers at Diemme. For this ultra-modern version of the Maggiore, Diemme commissioned an insanely cool 3D knit that frankly seems otherworldly in its texture and the colour pigments that comprise it. Dropping in both ‘Cloud Cream Lavender’ and Navy colourways, these styles are frankly bonkers for lack of a better word. Italian suede caps the toe, and the Sympatex recycled polyester lining is waterproof for keeping those feet cozy and dry at all times.

Rounding out this impressive lineup is the Crackled White version of the Maggiore, which lets texture do the talking with a shaggy, crackled suede leather that’s reminiscent of eggshells in colour and appearance. As easy on the eyes as they are on the feet, this all-white pair has a supremely comfy Napa leather lining to pair with its sophisticated vibe.
