FAQs
What material are the Portofino Trainers made of?
The Portofino Trainers are primarily made from 100% Calfskin Nappa leather for the outer material. The inner lining includes lambskin, goatskin, polyester, and natural rubber, with a calfskin insole.
Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?
While they are comfortable and durable for everyday wear, the Portofino Trainers are designed as fashion sneakers and are not intended for rigorous athletic performance.
How should I clean the white leather?
Gently wipe the white leather with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
What is the sole made of?
The sole of the Portofino Trainers is made of rubber, providing durability and traction.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The provided information specifically details the white variant. Please refer to Dolce & Gabbana's official channels or retailers for information on other available colorways.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the UK sizing guide provided. It is recommended to know your standard foot measurement or try them on if possible, as sizing can vary slightly between brands.
What does the 'rubber spoiler with micro-injected logo' refer to?
This refers to a detail on the heel of the shoe where a rubber piece is integrated, featuring a subtly embossed or injected Dolce & Gabbana logo.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair product. Professional cleaning can address deeper marks.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber soles are clean. For new shoes, light wear may be needed to 'break in' the grip. Consider a cobbler for additional sole treatment if persistent.
Discomfort after initial wear
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the correct size is being worn.
