Product Information
Full details
The Lacoste Elite Active trainers are designed for adult males seeking stylish and comfortable footwear for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in the blend of lightweight leather and supportive construction, offering both breathability and durability. A potential caveat is that while they offer good support, they are primarily fashion trainers and may not be suitable for high-impact athletic activities. These trainers feature a leather and polyester upper, a comfortable polyester lining, a shock-absorbing midsole, and a durable rubber and EVA outsole, all secured with a classic lace-up fastening.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
The Elite Active trainers are designed for style and comfort in everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specialized athletic shoes and may not provide the necessary performance or protection for high-impact sports or running.
How do I clean the leather parts of the trainers?
Clean leather parts with a soft, damp cloth and consider using a leather conditioner periodically. Avoid soaking the leather or using harsh cleaning agents.
What is the benefit of the Ortholite insole?
The Ortholite insole provides enhanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, contributing to overall comfort during wear.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, construction, and adhesives. Hand cleaning according to the care instructions is advised.
What does the 'Elite Active' series signify?
The 'Elite Active' series generally refers to Lacoste footwear that blends modern design with elements of comfort and performance suitable for an active lifestyle, often inspired by archival designs.
How does the lace-up fastening ensure a secure fit?
The traditional lace-up system allows you to adjust the tension across the midfoot, ensuring a personalized and secure fit tailored to the shape of your foot.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lace-up fastening to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks, as sock thickness can affect fit.
Slight discomfort during first wear
This is normal for new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. The Ortholite insole should provide cushioning.
Discoloration on leather parts
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials. If the discoloration is significant, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber and EVA outsole provides grip, but may perform differently on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris.
