For the epitome of comfort and style, you can't go wrong with Italian leather or suede sneakers.

Extended Size Sneakers Made in Italy

 

How should women’s Italian sneakers fit?

Women's Italian sneakers should fit comfortably and snugly, with a small amount of room (about a thumb's width) for the toes to move freely. The heel should be secure, but not too tight, and the shoe should not slip or rub. It is recommended to order according to the equivalent of your regular U.S. shoe size when buying Italian sneakers unless you prefer thicker socks, have a high instep, or have wide feet. In those cases, it is best to size up a half size.

Here are some steps to ensure a good fit for your Italian sneakers:

Measure your feet:Use a foot measuring tool or a piece of paper to measure the length and width of both feet. It's important to measure both feet, as one foot may be slightly larger than the other. 

Try on shoes in the afternoon: Feet swell throughout the day, so it's best to try on shoes in the late afternoon when they are at their largest.

Walk around in the shoes:Make sure to walk around in the shoes to ensure they fit comfortably and don't slip or rub.

Check the toe room:There should be enough room in the toe box to allow your toes to move freely, about a thumb's width of space.

Check the heel fit:The heel should be secure and not slip, but not too tight.

Consider the width: Make sure the shoe fits well across the width of your foot and doesn't pinch or feel too loose.

Allow for breathing room: Make sure there is enough room in the shoe for your foot to breathe and not feel cramped or constricted.

When purchasing your handmade Italian shoes at Italeau, we offer free returns in the event your shoes do not fit exactly right. Please view our return and exchange policy for details.

How do you know if an Italian sneaker is too big?

Here are some signs that an Italian sneaker may be too big:

Your toes are touching the end of the shoe or are cramped.

Your foot slides around inside the shoe when you walk.

Your heel slips out of the shoe when walking or standing.

You feel discomfort or pain while wearing the sneakers.

Getting shoes that fit well is important for several reasons:

Comfort: Well fitting shoes provide comfort and reduce the risk of blisters, calluses, and other foot problems.

Support: Shoes that fit well support your feet, which reduce the risk of injury and provide stability when walking, running or doing other physical activities.

Health: Ill-fitting shoes can cause foot issues, such as plantar fasciitis, bunions, and hammertoes, as well as pain in your back, knees or hips.

Performance: Shoes that fit well can improve your performance in physical activities and reduce the risk of injury.

Durability: Shoes that fit well actually last longer, as they don't wear down as quickly or unevenly.

Getting shoes that fit well is important for both comfort and health reasons. Please refer to our size guide to ensure you are getting the right fit for your feet.

Do Italian leather sneakers stretch out as they break in?

Yes, Italian leather sneakers may stretch out as they break in. Leather is a natural material that can change shape over time with wear and can become more comfortable and conform to the wearer's feet as they break in. However, the amount of stretching will depend on the type of leather used, the quality of the construction, and the individual wearer's feet. Additionally, wearing thick socks or using shoe inserts can also help to prevent excessive stretching.

 

How long does it take to break in sneakers?

The time it takes to break in sneakers can vary depending on several factors, such as the material, design, and type of activity being performed in the sneakers. Leather sneakers typically take a little longer to break in than synthetic materials, but they also tend to last longer and become more comfortable with time. On average, it may take 2-4 weeks of daily wear to fully break in leather sneakers. It is recommended to gently break them in your first few days, only wearing them for shorter periods of time. This ensures a comfortable break in period.

 

What makes leather and suede the perfect material for women’s Italian sneakers?

Leather and suede are the perfect materials for women's Italian sneakers for several reasons. Most importantly, leather and suede are durable materials that can withstand daily wear, making them ideal for sneakers that will last season after season.

How to care for & clean your leather or suede sneakers:

You can prolong the life of your Italian leather or suede sneakers by properly cleaning and caring for them. To remove dirt and debris, use a microfiber cloth or soft brush to gently wipe down the surface of the sneakers. To keep the leather or suede soft and supple, apply a conditioner to the surface of the sneakers. This will help to prevent the leather or suede from drying out over time, causing cracks. Additionally, storing them in a cool, dry place can help to prevent damage and extend their lifespan. Avoid storing your sneakers in damp or humid places, as this can cause mildew and mold to grow.
