Men leather sneakers: summer comfort

Sneakers have been a popular part of fashion for many years. Of course, even the sneaker goes through trends. Once, branded sneakers were rare; today, they're a fashion norm. 

Men’s leather sneakers are more than a fashion statement; they offer comfort and style, serving as an excellent alternative to work boots or dress shoes. 

A good pair of men’s leather sneakers will be light, comfortable, and cool, keeping you at ease even in hot weather. If you haven’t already invested in a pair of summer sneakers, now is the time.

Best summer sneakers for men

While almost any type of sneaker can now be worn, that doesn’t mean you want to wear the brightest ones or the ones your favorite celebrity is wearing. 

The top summer sneakers for men are mostly white with colored side panels. Darker styles with white edges are also trendy. Denim sneakers are another popular option this season. Check out our Nappa and lasered Nabuk sneakers or our perforated leather Nautica range.

While there are many sneaker options, the best ones are made with the highest quality materials. Leather is an excellent choice as it is soft, durable, and breathable. If you want the best option of all, choose a Nappa leather sneaker for men. They feel great and look fantastic. 

How to style men’s leather sneakers

The key to wearing men’s leather sneakers isn’t just in the color choice, it's about maintenance and coordination. Regularly clean your sneakers with a damp cloth and appropriate cleaner. Use a leather conditioner to keep them soft and protect against water and UV rays.

For a coordinated look, ensure your sneakers match or complement your outfit.  Add small splashes of color that reflect your sneaker’s hue, like a bracelet or a contrasting top, to appear coordinated and sophisticated.

Choose men’s summer sneakers for different occasions

Bold and colorful sneakers are perfect for casual settings like the beach or parties, adding a fun and vibrant touch to your outfit. They pair especially well with shorts, creating a relaxed and stylish look that's ideal for summer. However, if you're seeking a balance between casual and formal, patterned leather sneakers are an excellent choice. These sneakers offer a sophisticated twist on the traditional casual shoe, making them versatile enough for various occasions.

 A great starting point is a refined sneaker in pastel or dark colors combined with white, suitable for formal occasions and even the workplace. Our leather denim jeans sneaker is another versatile option, seamlessly transitioning from beach outings to after-work drinks or even office settings. When styling these sneakers, it's important to consider the overall look. Avoid pairing denim sneakers with denim jeans of the same color to prevent a monotonous outfit. Instead, opt for contrasting colors or different textures to create a more balanced and visually appealing outfit. 

How to wear sneakers at the office

It’s now acceptable to wear sneakers to the office. Men no longer need to wear formal shoes. However, there is still an etiquette which needs to be understood and followed. 

First thing, you’ll need to assess your office's formality level. A dress shoe sneaker, which combines the classic look of a dress shoe with a sneaker sole, can be a good choice.

You’ll probably be better off opting for a leather sneaker with low cuffs, slim soles, and flat laces in simple colors like white, black, or beige. Tan can work but may look more like a dress shoe.

Choose sneakers in colors that match your office dress code and invest in quality leather sneakers. Proper care will ensure you look professional and stylish.
