This is the length of your foot, not of the shoe. The shoe is a little longer, so your toes have room.

Measure your foot

  1. Put a sheet of paper against a wall. Stand on it in socks, with your heel against the wall.
  2. Mark the tip of your longest toe.
  3. Measure from the wall to the mark and find that length in the table.

Measure at the end of the day, when your feet are at their largest.

Description

A loafer you put on without sitting down. The LS 03 keeps the upper clean and the sole thin, so the shoe bends with the foot. Low, light and easy from the first wear. Mediterranean suede with a full leather lining that softens and settles to your foot. A small square at the heel, for those who look closer.

Material info

Suede is cut from the underside of the hide and sanded to a fine, velvety nap. Ours is true to its name: tanned on the Mediterranean by Gruppo Mastrotto in Arzignano, Italy, an LWG Gold certified tannery, and Sanchez Agullo in Alicante, Spain, LWG approved. Every hide is inspected on finish, colour, surface and thickness before cutting. Quality shows in the nap: short, dense and even, with deep, uniform colour that gains character over time.
Care
  • Brush regularly in the direction of the nap
  • Protect against water and stains before first wear
  • If wet, let dry naturally, away from heat

    Satisfied, as expected

    I already had a pair of LS 03s in Taupe; I just picked up another color—I'm very happy with them. I wear a size 43 and bought a size 44.

    LS 03 Suede Sand

    Honestly there are absolutely beautiful and let’s not go there how comfortable are!! I would definitely recommend them I’ve only worn them a couple of times so I can’t comment on durability but I’ve got a couple of pairs of ETQ’s as my sons do and so fare extremely robust!! This ones have that little extra class 👍

    Quality that you can fell

    Ordered the wrong size so I’m still to fell them on my feet. However, on the simple touch of the hands, one can see the inherent quality of the material used. 5 starts also to the customer support and the return process. The correct size is in transit and I can’t wait to try them on.

    Very nice shoes

    They might be a little tight at first, but after wearing them just once, they’ll break in just like my well-worn Carmina and C&J loafers. On par with Loro Piana.

    Disappointed with this new version

    I had previously bought the earlier version of this model and wore them a lot. Unfortunately, I didn’t take proper care of them and, after so much use, they eventually became quite worn out. So I was really pleased to see that the model was available again, especially as it had apparently been redesigned to offer more flexibility. One improvement I do appreciate is the new white sole, which looks much better and more modern than the slightly yellowish sole of the previous version. Unfortunately, after wearing this new version, I have to say I’m quite disappointed. They are definitely more flexible, but in my opinion, far too flexible. The foot no longer feels properly supported, and that almost sneaker-like feel that I really liked about the previous version is gone. When walking, the sides of the shoes tend to spread out rather than hold the foot securely in place. I also find the sole noticeably less comfortable. After about an hour of walking, my feet start to hurt because there simply isn’t enough support or cushioning. For me, the previous version was clearly better. I think it would have been enough to keep its structure and support while simply improving the flexibility and making the sole feel more like that of a comfortable sneaker. It’s a shame, because I really loved the previous version of this model.

    Loafers

    Unfortunately, the shoes turned out to be too small, and since I've worn them outside, I can't exchange them for a larger size

Handmade in Portugal.

Cut from premium nappa, full grain and suede, then built on the last by makers who do little else. It takes years to master a shoe. We’re still finding ways to make it better.

See how it's made

One box. Nothing wasted.

Order one pair and it ships in the white box, no second carton, nothing thrown away. Inside, a reusable ETQ travel bag for wherever they go next. A detail you notice after you buy, not just before.

Questions about the LS 03 Suede

How does the LS 03 fit?

A close, clean fit. Take your usual size, or go one size up if you are between sizes or have wider feet. The shoe softens and shapes to your foot as you wear it.

Do you have half sizes?

No, we only make whole sizes. Between two sizes? Take the bigger one: you can fill a little space, but you can't add length. A slightly thicker insole or thicker socks take up the extra room, and the insole lifts out, so swapping it takes seconds.

Will the suede give a little?

Yes. Suede softens from the first wear and moulds to your foot within about a week. The length stays the same, so choose your size on length; the width gives a little as the suede settles.

How do I look after suede?

Protect it with a suede spray before you first wear it, and again every few weeks. Brush it dry with a suede brush, along the nap, to lift dust and bring the colour back. Caught in the rain? Stuff the shoes with paper, let them dry slowly at room temperature, away from the heater, then brush. A suede eraser takes care of most marks. Suede is a natural material, so small colour differences between batches are normal.

Can I take the insole out?

Yes. The insole lifts out, so you can fit a fresh one or your own orthotics.

How do returns work if it doesn't fit?

Open our return portal and choose your new size: it ships as soon as your return is on its way, and you don't need to place a new order. Prefer a different colour or model? Choose store credit and order again, or choose a refund. Costs per country are on our returns page.

Is there a warranty on my ETQ product?

Yes, manufacturing defects are covered by the statutory warranty. Something not right? Send us a photo and your order number and we’ll find a solution together. Normal wear and damage from use are not covered.

Do you have a store?

We don't have our own store: ETQ is online only. You order here and try everything on at home. If it isn't right, you can exchange or return it through our return portal.

Something not right? Tell us.

We’ll sort it out with you. And it goes back to the studio, so the next version is better.
