FAQs

What type of leather are these trainers made from?

These trainers are made from vachetta leather, a high-quality, untreated, and natural vegetable-tanned calfskin.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, these trainers are designed for casual everyday wear and city strolling. They are not intended for athletic activities like running or intense sports.

How should I clean the Emporio Armani logo on the sole?

Gently wipe the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the logo or the sole material.

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. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet and are properly conditioned.

What does it mean for them to be part of the 'Travel Essentials' collection?

This indicates they are designed as versatile, essential pieces within a curated collection, perfect for building a functional and stylish wardrobe, especially for travel.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart and compare it with your usual UK shoe size. Consider the fit of similar leather trainers you own.

Will the white leather stain easily?

White leather, especially untreated types like vachetta, can be more susceptible to stains. Proper care, including using a protector spray and prompt cleaning of spills, is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a small amount of quality leather conditioner to the surface using a soft cloth. Allow it to absorb, then buff gently.

Scuff marks on the white leather

For minor scuffs, try gently wiping with a slightly damp cloth or a specialized leather eraser. For deeper marks, consult a professional leather cleaner.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. While designed for urban use, caution is advised on very wet or slick surfaces as with any footwear.

Laces are worn or dirty

Replace laces with new ones of a similar type and length to refresh the appearance of the trainers.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather surface with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust and light dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Protection: Use a leather protector spray suitable for vachetta leather to guard against water and stains. Apply periodically according to product instructions.
  3. Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use. Avoid storing in plastic bags, as leather needs to breathe.
  4. Conditioning: Occasionally, use a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out or cracking. Test the conditioner on an inconspicuous area first.
