As a must-have item for men, choosing a pair of leather shoes that suits them is really a plus. Choosing leather shoes is a university education.


However, for professionals in the workplace, the basic model does not require complex selection strategies, only the most basic selection methods need to be grasped.


When choosing leather shoes, just pay attention to the following points:


Size of leather shoes

Leather shoe upper and lining materials

Introduction to leather shoe styles and practicality



1、 How to choose the size of leather shoes


(1) When the size is the same, the inner length of standard leather shoes will be longer than that of sports shoes, so the appropriate size of leather shoes is generally one size smaller than sports shoes.


(2) The length difference between large round toe leather shoes and pointed toe leather shoes is about two centimeters. Choose one size shorter for large round toe shoes and one size larger for pointed toe shoes.


(3) If you don't mind the trouble, just ask customer service directly if you have your own foot length and foot measurement data

2、 How to choose leather shoe upper and lining materials


Common uppers and lining fabrics:


Head layer pig skin: With large pores, good breathability and water permeability, it is cheap, but its disadvantages are easy to wear and tear, resulting in poor breathability.

Composite pigskin (two-layer cowhide): Made from leftover materials, with poor breathability, the most widely used, and the most wear-resistant

Sheepskin: Soft texture, strong comfort

Top layer cowhide: High price, widely used, commonly used as fabric, with good glossiness

PU is polyurethane, and PU leather is the skin composed of polyurethane. Nowadays, clothing manufacturers widely use this material to produce leather shoe fabrics, commonly known as imitation leather shoes.


Features:


PU leather and genuine leather each have their own characteristics. PU leather bags have a beautiful appearance, are easy to manage, and have a lower price, but are not wear-resistant and easy to break; Genuine leather is expensive and requires a lot of care, but it can be used effectively.


3、 Leather shoe style and practicality


Leather shoes can be roughly divided into two categories:


1、 Formal leather shoes: suitable for formal occasions, especially for professional needs (lawyers, salespeople), mainly in full black without shoelaces, most of which are pointed, with glossy upper


2、 Casual leather shoes: suitable for commuting to and from work, with a focus on breathability and comfort. They should have an inner height, high appearance, and can be worn in a fashionable manner.
