Product Information

Full details

The Lanvin Curb Trainers are designed for fashion-conscious adults seeking a distinctive, retro-inspired sneaker for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in their unique, chunky silhouette and premium calf leather construction, offering both style and durability. A potential caveat is their specific EU sizing, which requires careful attention to ensure the correct fit. These trainers feature a blend of contrasting materials, oversized laces, and a signature painted sole, making them a statement piece for any casual ensemble.

FAQs

How do I determine my correct EU size?

Refer to the product's size chart or consult Lanvin's official sizing guide. Generally, EU sizing is used. Measure your foot length in centimeters and compare it to the provided chart. If you are between sizes, consider your preferred fit (snug or loose) and the trainer's material.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, the Lanvin Curb Trainers are designed for fashion and lifestyle wear. They lack the specific support and cushioning required for athletic performance and may not withstand the stress of sports activities.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is recommended to avoid wearing these trainers in wet conditions. While the leather has some natural resistance, prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the material and the painted sole. Always protect them from rain.

What is the 'Mother and Child' logo?

The 'Mother and Child' motif is a significant and recurring artistic element in Lanvin's heritage, often symbolizing protection and connection. Its embossed presence on the tongue is a subtle nod to the brand's history.

How should I clean the contrasting materials?

Use a soft, dry cloth or brush for general cleaning. For specific material stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner or research specific cleaning methods for each material type (e.g., leather, polyester, polyamide) to avoid damage.

What is the purpose of the 'Turtle-shell painted sole'?

The turtle-shell painted sole is a distinctive design feature that adds a unique artistic element to the trainers, reflecting Lanvin's commitment to innovative and visually striking aesthetics.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel difficult to tie or adjust.

Ensure the herringbone pattern is oriented correctly. Gently pull the laces to smooth them out before tying. If they remain stiff, a very small amount of wax-based shoe conditioner applied sparingly might help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Leather appears dry or dull.

Apply a small amount of neutral-colored leather conditioner using a soft cloth. Buff gently. Always test conditioners on a hidden area of the shoe first.

Painted sole shows minor scuffs.

For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For more noticeable marks, consider a touch-up paint specifically designed for footwear, applied with a fine brush. Professional restoration may be needed for significant damage.
