The ultimate in dress-down fashion, trainers are a hugely popular choice across all generations. Offering an extremely lightweight and flexible design due to its original use as a sports shoe, the trainer market today goes beyond gym wear and into its own section of fashion. A trainer made using natural leathers and suedes goes one step further to increase longevity and breathability, resulting in an even more comfortable experience.

Nubuck is made from the outer layer of leather, which is sanded to create a soft, velvety surface. While it has a similar look and feel to suede, nubuck is slightly more durable due to its stronger grain structure. However, it is still prone to scratches and stains, requiring regular maintenance to keep its appearance. Nubuck offers a refined, versatile look that works well in both casual and semi-formal settings. Although it handles light moisture better than suede, nubuck is not fully water-resistant and benefits from protective treatments to maintain its quality over time.
