Full details
The Lacoste Aura Trainers are designed for the modern adult male seeking a blend of iconic Lacoste style with a nod to 1970s terrace aesthetics. Their key benefit lies in offering a sophisticated yet casual look, perfect for everyday wear. A potential caveat is that the leather and suede combination requires specific care to maintain its appearance. These trainers feature a sleek leather and suede upper, subtle decorative seams, a metallic crocodile emblem, and embroidered branding, all contributing to a deconstructed, freshly worn look rooted in retro style codes.

FAQs
What materials are the Lacoste Aura Trainers made from?
The trainers feature a combination of leather and suede for the upper, with a rubber sole.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a suede brush to maintain the texture and remove light dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always protect with a suede protector spray.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
The Lacoste Aura Trainers are designed for style and casual wear, not for rigorous athletic performance. Their construction prioritizes aesthetic and everyday comfort.
What is the fit like for the Aura Trainers?
These trainers generally offer a standard fit. It is recommended to consult size charts and consider trying them on if possible, as individual fit preferences can vary.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, the suede is sensitive to moisture. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to use a waterproofing spray specifically designed for leather and suede.
What does the 'deconstructed aesthetic' mean for these trainers?
This refers to a design that intentionally looks slightly unfinished or 'worn-in' from the start, featuring subtle design elements that give them a unique, lived-in character rather than a pristine, factory-new appearance.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears flat or stained
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to lift the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural with wear. To minimize deep creases, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when storing to help maintain shape.
Sole becoming slippery
Ensure the sole is clean and free from mud or debris. If the texture has worn down significantly, this may indicate normal wear and tear, and replacement might be considered depending on the shoe's overall condition.
Metallic crocodile emblem losing shine
Gently wipe the emblem with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive rubbing which can damage the finish.
