LT01 suede chocolate

This is already my third pair of ETQ sneakers, and once again, I'm extremely satisfied. They're incredibly comfortable to wear.

Quality

Lovely bit of kit

Designed in the Netherlands, for the dress code with no rules.

The hardest dress code to get right is the one with no rules. This edit brings together the ETQ footwear and clothing that does business casual best: clean shoes that read smart under tailoring and relaxed with denim, and the tailored-but-easy pieces that go with them. Built around tonal colours and quiet finishing, so everything works together and nothing tries too hard.

Across more than 500 verified reviews ETQ holds 4.6 out of 5, and comfort is the word that recurs most after quality, which is exactly what a full working day asks of business casual. Part of a community of more than 250,000 customers.

The shoes

  • LS 01 Suede loafer: the smart-casual anchor, in a range of tonal shades.
  • LT 03 Premium Nappa and LT 01 Essence: clean leather white and black sneakers that hold up under a trouser.
  • LT 01 Shades Nubuck: tonal nubuck sneakers in a range of shades.
  • DB 01 desert boot: the suede lace-up for cooler days. All footwear made in Portugal.

The clothing

How to put it together

Start from the shoe and build up. A suede loafer or clean leather sneaker with an Essence chino or trouser and a tailored polo or fine merino knit is the core business-casual outfit. Layer an Essence overshirt over the top, and swap the polo for a heavyweight tee and the chino for denim when the day relaxes.

Why it works

Everything here is tonal and clean, so it mixes without effort, and it's built to be comfortable through a full day. Our shoes use cushioned footbeds and soft leathers, so smart doesn't mean stiff. It's the wardrobe most of our customers actually live in.

Frequently asked about business casual

What shoes work best for business casual?

A clean suede loafer or a minimal leather sneaker. Both read smart with tailoring and relaxed with denim, so one pair covers most occasions.

Can I wear sneakers for business casual?

Yes, if they're clean and unbranded. The LT 01 and LT 03 in clean white or black leather are made to sit under a trouser without looking sporty.

How do I build a business-casual outfit?

Start with the shoe, add an Essence chino or trouser and a tailored polo or fine knit, and layer an overshirt over the top.

Where is it made?

Footwear is made in Portugal; the clothing is designed in our Dutch studio and made in family-owned ateliers in Portugal, Turkey or China, chosen per piece.
