FAQs

What is 'Action Leather'?

Action leather is a type of coated leather, often made from split leather, that is treated with a polyurethane or acrylic coating. This process enhances durability, water resistance, and gives it a smooth, uniform appearance, making it ideal for casual footwear.

Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?

No, these trainers are designed for casual lifestyle wear and are not intended for athletic activities, running, or performance sports. Their construction prioritizes style and comfort for everyday use.

How do I clean the white and red parts of the trainers?

For light dirt on both white and red areas, wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains on the white leather, use a specialized white leather cleaner. For the red sections, use a color-safe leather cleaner. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

While action leather offers some water resistance due to its coating, these trainers are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the material and prolong their lifespan. Consider using a waterproofing spray for added protection in damp conditions.

What is the heel type on these trainers?

These trainers feature a 'no heel' or flat design. This construction prioritizes comfort and a classic, casual aesthetic, making them ideal for everyday wear.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Armani Exchange trainers generally run true to size. We recommend purchasing your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, it's often advisable to consult a size chart or try them on if possible.

Will the white color easily get dirty?

As with most white footwear, the white sections of these trainers may show dirt and scuffs more easily than darker colors. Regular cleaning and care are recommended to maintain their fresh appearance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house to soften the leather and adapt to your foot shape.

Laces frequently come undone.

Ensure you are tying a double knot, or consider replacing the laces with ones that have better grip or a different texture.

Leather appears dull or scuffed.

Clean the area with a damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner. Follow up with a leather conditioner suitable for coated leather to restore shine and protect the material.

White areas show persistent dirt or yellowing.

Use a specialized white shoe cleaner or a gentle solution of mild soap and water applied with a soft brush. For yellowing, there are specific whitening products available for shoe materials, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

A squeaking sound comes from the shoe.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the inside, and sprinkling a little talcum powder or baking soda inside the shoe before replacing the insole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish Aesthetic: The white and red design with the back logo offers a modern and eye-catching look.
  • Durable Construction: Made with action leather, these trainers are built for longevity and regular wear.
  • Comfortable Fit: The no-heel design and lace-up closure contribute to all-day comfort for casual use.
  • Versatile Pairing: Easily complements a wide range of casual attire, from jeans to shorts.
  • Brand Recognition: Armani Exchange branding adds a touch of premium style.

Cons

  • Specific Care Requirements: Action leather needs proper cleaning and maintenance to preserve its appearance.
  • Limited to Casual Use: Not designed for athletic performance or formal occasions.
  • White Color Maintenance: The white surface may show dirt and scuffs more easily, requiring frequent cleaning.
  • Breathability: As leather trainers, they might offer less breathability compared to mesh alternatives in very warm conditions.

Setup

Your trainers come ready to wear. Simply unlace them, insert your feet, and adjust the laces for a comfortable, secure fit. Ensure the laces are neither too tight (restricting blood flow) nor too loose (causing instability).

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for adult males and are highly compatible with a casual wardrobe. Pair them with:

  • Jeans and a t-shirt
  • Chinos or cargo pants with a casual shirt
  • Shorts for a relaxed summer look

They are best suited for dry, everyday conditions and casual social settings.

Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your action leather trainers, follow these care instructions:

  1. Initial Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray before the first wear to guard against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for coated leather. Apply cleaner to a cloth first, then gently wipe the shoe. Avoid scrubbing vigorously.
  3. Spot Treatment: Address stains as soon as possible. White areas may require more frequent attention. A specialized white shoe cleaner can help maintain brightness.
  4. Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight), which can dry out and crack the leather.
  5. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
  6. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the action leather coating.
