Lacoste Lerond Pro - Black - UK 11

Lacoste Lerond Pro trainers generally run true to size according to standard UK shoe measurements. However, individual foot shape can influence fit. If you typically fall between sizes, you might consider trying both or consulting a specific size guide if available. The premium leather upper will also gently conform to your foot over time, enhancing the custom feel.

While the leather offers a degree of natural water resistance, these trainers are not fully waterproof. For optimal protection and to preserve the leather, we strongly recommend applying a suitable leather protector spray regularly. This will help repel water and prevent stains. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain to maintain the quality and appearance of the leather.

Regular light cleaning after each wear with a soft, slightly damp cloth is recommended to remove surface dust and dirt. For deeper cleaning or conditioning to nourish the leather, aim for every 2-4 weeks, depending on your frequency of use and exposure to dirt or harsh elements. Consistent care will significantly extend the life and aesthetic appeal of your trainers.

The Lerond Pro trainers feature a cushioned insole primarily designed for general comfort during everyday wear. They offer standard support suitable for most individuals. However, they may not provide specialized or pronounced arch support for those with specific orthopedic needs. If enhanced arch support is required, custom insoles can typically be inserted by removing the existing ones.

These trainers are incredibly versatile, blending classic tennis heritage with a modern street aesthetic. They are best suited for smart-casual and casual ensembles. They pair wonderfully with jeans, chinos, tailored shorts, polo shirts, casual button-down shirts, or light sweaters. Their clean, black leather design makes them easy to dress up or down for various daily occasions and social gatherings.

The signature Lacoste crocodile emblem on the Lerond Pro trainers is typically an appliqué or an embroidered patch, giving it a premium, slightly raised texture rather than being simply printed. This method of application enhances its durability, maintains its classic aesthetic, and adds to the overall quality feel of the footwear.

Ensure laces are not overtightened; adjust them for a relaxed yet secure fit. Allow time for the premium leather to naturally mould to your foot shape, which will improve comfort over successive wears. If discomfort persists, consider trying thinner socks or verifying your size against a brand-specific size chart.

For light scuffs, gently rub with a soft, clean, damp cloth. For deeper marks or stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft brush, following the product's instructions. A neutral leather polish designed for black leather can also help diminish scuff marks and restore shine.

While the vulcanised rubber sole offers reliable grip, extreme wet, icy, or very smooth polished surfaces can still present challenges. Ensure the soles are clean from any accumulated mud, dirt, or debris. If the problem persists on specific surfaces, exercise extra caution or consider wearing footwear with a more aggressive tread pattern for those conditions.
