FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for all-weather wear?

While these trainers are made of durable leather, they are not specifically designed for heavy rain or extreme wet conditions. We recommend applying a leather protector spray for water resistance and avoiding prolonged exposure to moisture to preserve the leather quality.

How do I determine the correct size if I'm not a UK 8?

These trainers are listed as UK size 8. For accurate sizing, we recommend referring to a comprehensive shoe size conversion chart or trying them on if possible, as sizes can vary slightly between brands. Consider comparing your current shoe size with the UK equivalent.

Can I machine wash these leather trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended for leather trainers as it can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure. Please follow the specific care instructions provided in the 'Setup, Compatibility & Care' section for cleaning and maintenance.

What kind of socks should I wear with these trainers?

For optimal comfort and style, we recommend wearing ankle-length or no-show socks, depending on your preference and outfit. Opt for moisture-wicking materials to keep your feet dry and fresh, especially with leather footwear.

Do the trainers require a break-in period?

As with most quality leather footwear, a short break-in period may be necessary. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the leather to conform to the shape of your foot, enhancing comfort over time.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dull or dry

Apply a high-quality leather conditioner using a soft cloth. Allow it to soak in, then buff gently with a clean cloth for a renewed luster and suppleness.

Minor scuffs or scratches on the leather surface

Clean the affected area. For light scuffs, use a leather cleaner. For deeper scratches, apply a small amount of matching leather balm or polish and buff gently. Repeat if necessary.

Trainers develop an unpleasant odor

Remove insoles and allow trainers to air out in a well-ventilated area for at least 24 hours. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or insert cedar shoe trees, which help absorb moisture and neutralize odors. Avoid wearing the same pair every day to allow them to dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Your Armani Exchange Leather Trainers arrive ready to wear. Simply unbox, loosen the laces, and adjust for a comfortable fit.

Compatibility

These trainers are highly compatible with a range of wardrobe choices, particularly those that lean towards smart-casual or refined casual styles. They pair well with:

  • Trousers: Chinos, tailored wool trousers, dark-wash denim.
  • Tops: Button-down shirts, polo shirts, high-quality t-shirts, light sweaters.
  • Outerwear: Blazers, casual jackets, light overcoats.

Care

As these trainers are crafted from 100% leather, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance and longevity.

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality leather protector spray. This helps repel water and prevent stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the trainers with a soft, damp cloth after each wear to remove dust and dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner, following the product instructions carefully.
  3. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few weeks or as needed to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. This is especially important if the trainers get wet.
  4. Drying: If your trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Never use direct heat (e.g., a hairdryer or radiator) as this can damage and crack the leather.
  5. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  6. Scuffs: For minor scuffs, a dab of matching leather cream or polish can often help conceal them.
