Skolyx Premium trainers in white leather

An interpretation of the most classic version of trainers, a model that is one of the oldest types of sneakers around, here made entirely of chrome-free white full-grain calf leather. Clean and crisp. The inside is made of vegetable-tanned leather. Incredibly comfortable shoes, the sole has just the right balance of support and comfortable cushioning, not at all the spongy feel that some trainers with foam rubber soles tend to have.

Made in a factory in Portugal, where together we've gone through every part of the shoes, getting specifications of absolute top class while managing to keep the price at a very competitive level.

Below all the details of the shoes:
- Chrome free calf leather
- Fully lined in vegetable tanned Italian leather which is kind to the foot and breathes well.
- A thicker built-up and cushioned insole, covered with vegetable tanned leather.
- Comfortable padding along the opening and in the tongue.
- Durable and comfortable rubber soles.
- Reinforcement at the back of the heel to improve the stability of the soles, makes these trainers work also for people with pronation.
- Leather board heel stiffeners that moulds nicely to the foot, instead of plastic heel stiffeners which are by far the most common in sneakers.
- Midsole (which is like a base inside the shoe under the loose insole) in real leather, instead of being made of a felt cloth or cardboard as in almost all other sneakers. 
- Shank in arch of the foot which gives the shoe comfortable stability in the area that is not supposed to bend.

The cemented construction is the most basic construction method for shoes. Here the upper together with midsole / lasting board (as is the case for all our Skolyx shoes made with this construction, where a proper real leather midsole is used) or in simpler cases a fabric sole base is attached to the outsole with only adhesives, no stitching.

Nowadays the cement used is strong and can often last long, but resoling the shoes is usually trickier. Often a cobbler only attach a new wear piece on top of the original outsole, to make the shoes last longer.
