FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

These trainers are designed for everyday wear and city use, not for high-impact athletic activities. For sports, it is recommended to use specialized athletic footwear.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Emporio Armani or the retailer. These trainers generally follow standard UK men's shoe sizing. Measure your foot length for the most accurate fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather can be treated for water resistance, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions to preserve the leather's quality. Always ensure they are dried properly if they get damp.

What does 'Vachetta leather' mean?

Vachetta leather is a high-quality, vegetable-tanned calfskin leather known for its smooth finish and natural appearance. It's prized for its durability and how it develops a patina over time.

How often should I condition the leather?

It is generally recommended to condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more often if the shoes are frequently exposed to dry conditions or heavy wear. This helps keep the leather supple and prevents it from drying out or cracking.

What is the 'Travel Essentials' collection?

The Travel Essentials collection by Emporio Armani focuses on creating versatile, comfortable, and stylish pieces that are practical for travel and everyday life, often featuring minimalist designs and durable materials.

Troubleshooting

Leather scuffs easily

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair product. Consider using a leather protector spray to prevent future scuffs.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole, or use a leather conditioner on the tongue area.

Discoloration from water or dirt

Address spills immediately by blotting with a dry cloth. For stubborn stains, use a cleaner specifically designed for vachetta leather. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing again.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace the laces with a similar type and length. Consider using waxed cotton laces for increased durability.
