Ambitious, a Portuguese brand founded in Guimar\u00e3es in 2008, knows this well. At MICAM Milan, it presented Portraits, the Autumn\/Winter 2026-27 collection capable of transforming nostalgia and identity into concrete, elegant, durable footwear. The collection draws inspiration from returning to places which, whilst appearing empty, hold stories within them. Deep browns, mustard yellow, intense blues and khaki make up a palette that balances roots and renewal, stability and rebirth. Each model is born from artisanal expertise passed down through generations: precise stitching, meticulous finishes, and constructions designed to stand the test of time. <\/span><\/p>\n

Portraits debuts at a time when the figures speak for the brand: 500,000 pairs produced annually, 200 employees, 58 markets, distribution across 900 retail outlets. Italy remains the key market, with \u20ac6 million in 2025 \u2014 30% of total turnover, followed by the United States and the Netherlands. Whilst Germany shows some uncertainty, the Italian consumer continues to prioritise style. Fertile ground, therefore, for a brand that sees luxury as something felt with every step.<\/p>\n

Ambitious presents the Portraits collection, available in both men\u2019s and women\u2019s lines, confirming a brand vision that embraces both worlds without compromise.<\/p>\n
