Great Quality
Good Quality and arrived on time
Premium Quality and Timeless Design
Excellent sneakers with a clean, minimalist design. They are versatile, comfortable, and easy to pair with both casual and smart-casual outfits. The materials feel premium, the craftsmanship is impressive, and the overall quality exceeds expectations. Comfortable from the first wear and built to last. Highly recommended.
New Trainers
These were my first ETQ purchase and I’m now onto purchasing my 3rd pair in a week - that’s says it all. Top quality, Top styling and Top Service!
One of the most painful experiences I have had with any company. Shoes took 15 days to arrive and clear customs- box arrived mangled and with gaping holes. Shoes didn't fit near true to size. Charged a surprise customs charge in the middle of the return process. The returns 3rd party they use didn't even send the correct customs documents when I attempted to return. At this point I'm out about $300 on shoes I can't wear and can't return due to company not responding to these issues.
Tip top!
Quality is great, i had to exchange it for a bigger size! No problem service is graet.
Men's business casual, made comfortable
Business casual sits between a suit and streetwear: refined enough for the office, relaxed enough for everyday. This edit brings ETQ's clean, mature essentials together in one place head to toe. It's built around what our own customers tell us matters most: in our post-purchase survey, the two reasons people most often give for choosing ETQ are quality and clean design.
What's in this edit
- Footwear — leather and suede loafers, slip-ons and minimalist sneakers in suede, nubuck, premium nappa and full-grain leather.

How to build a business casual look
Start with a clean leather loafer or a minimalist white sneaker. Add a tailored chino in sand, charcoal or navy, and finish with a polo or a fine-gauge merino knit. For a sharper register, layer the Essence Suit over a polo and step into suede loafers.

Frequently asked questions
What is business casual for men?
Business casual is a polished but relaxed dress code: tailored trousers or chinos with a polo, fine knit or shirt, finished with loafers or clean leather sneakers. A structured jacket or unstructured suit is optional. It avoids both formal suiting with a tie and sporty streetwear.
What shoes work best for business casual?
Leather and suede loafers are the safest choice, followed by minimalist white or neutral leather sneakers. In this edit, the LS 01 suede loafers and the LT 01 Essence leather sneakers are the most versatile starting points.
Can I wear sneakers with a business casual outfit?
Yes — provided they are clean, low-profile and made of leather, suede or nubuck rather than sporty mesh. ETQ's Essence and Court Lite silhouettes in white, black or taupe are built for exactly this.
Do ETQ shoes fit true to size?
Most do. Of reviewers who rated fit, 76% said true to size, with the rest split evenly between runs-small and runs-large. If you are between sizes, we recommend the larger size.
Where are ETQ products made, and from what materials?
Footwear is made in Portugal using premium suede, nubuck, nappa and full-grain leather. Knitwear uses merino wool, polos a cotton-silk blend, and chinos a softened cotton twill. We select each atelier for its specialism.

How to measure
Let’s find your perfect fit. Place a sheet of paper on the floor against the wall and put your feet (with socks) on it, heels against the wall. Make sure you lean on your feet with full power when measuring. Now you simply draw a line at the end of the biggest foot. Measure the distance with a ruler and find the size that matches it: see size table. Are you in between sizes? In that case, we suggest taking the bigger size.
Mediterranean Suede
Refined in style, matt in color. The ultra-soft suede leather is sanded and feels velvety soft. It is crafted from the inside layer of the leather hide. Mediterranean leather is the delicate choice.
Premium Suede
Experience unparalleled luxury. It's made of the finest selection of hides and superior finishing techniques. It is valued for its softness, flexibility, and ability to lend a sophisticated look. Our premium suede shoes need no lining, just one layer of leather. It wears like a second skin.
Nappa Leather
Soft. Smooth. Nappa leather makes extremely comfortable shoes. The leather is obtained from tanning animal hides. It is characterized by a fine grain and a smooth finish. It feels simply sophisticated.
Nubuck Leather
Premium nubuck: the best of the best. Exclusive leather that we sanded rough on the outside grain part of the hide, giving it a velvety butter-soft surface. It offers utmost suppleness.
Full Grain Leather
Full grain leather is naturally firmer and more durable as it is produced by retaining the top layer of the hide. Its appearance is natural, authentic, and robust. You are still able to see the grains. It looks just like the grains on your skin. We never sanded, buffed, or snuffed it, so this leather is super strong.
French Terry
Tès Chique. French terry is a knit characterized by its unique looped-back construction. One side is smooth, and the other side is textured with loops of thread. It is known for its comfort, breathability, and moisture-proof properties. French terry is available as lightweight or heavyweight.
Punti di Roma
Wrinkle-resistant, soft like a baby, and slightly elastic. This is Italian quality, knitted to perfection. Punti Di Roma has a heavy, rich quality as the stitches interlock on both sides of the fabric. The best part: it’s recovery properties. This fabric stays in shape. And so will you.
Bamboo
Bamboo fibers are derived from the pulp of bamboo plants. Bamboo knits are soft and breathable. Moisture wicking? Yes. Ideal for socks.
American Fleece
Comfort meets durability in our American Fleece. This fabric is made from a blend of premium cotton and synthetic fibers, providing a soft yet resilient texture. Known for its exceptional warmth and insulation, American Fleece is perfect for layering or wearing on its own. Its slightly brushed surface creates a plush, cozy feel, making it ideal for cooler climates. Despite its softness, this fleece is highly durable and resistant to pilling, ensuring it maintains its luxurious feel wear after wear. A staple in athleisure and casualwear, American Fleece offers the perfect balance of comfort and performance.
Italian Fleece
Elegance meets functionality with our Italian Fleece. This luxurious fabric is crafted from a premium cotton blend, renowned for its superior softness and refined texture. Italian Fleece is lightweight yet provides excellent warmth, making it an ideal choice for year-round comfort. Its smooth, polished surface gives it a sophisticated appearance, elevating casual wear to a new level of style. The meticulous Italian craftsmanship behind this fleece ensures it retains its shape and quality over time, offering both durability and a high-end feel. Perfect for layering or as a statement piece, Italian Fleece embodies the essence of quiet luxury with unparalleled comfort.
Piqué Knit
A true classic in fabric craftsmanship, piqué knit is renowned for its unique textured surface, characterized by a subtle waffle or honeycomb pattern. Originally developed for sportswear, piqué knit has evolved into a sophisticated fabric that balances structure with breathability. The weave creates tiny raised patterns, adding a tactile dimension while allowing air to flow easily, making it perfect for all-season wear.
Soft yet durable, piqué knit is frequently used in polo shirts and garments that require a balance between casual and formal. It drapes beautifully while maintaining a slight stretch, offering comfort without losing its shape. Known for its ability to hold its form and resist wrinkling, this fabric is an excellent choice for those who value a polished look with minimal maintenance.
Mercerized Cotton
Mercerized cotton is the epitome of luxury in cotton fabrics. Through a special finishing process, the cotton fibers are treated to enhance their natural properties, resulting in a fabric that is smoother, stronger, and more lustrous. The mercerization process not only strengthens the fibers but also gives the cotton a subtle sheen that adds an elevated, polished look to the material.
What sets mercerized cotton apart is its ability to hold dye exceptionally well, resulting in vibrant, rich colors that resist fading over time. It’s smoother to the touch than regular cotton, offering a silk-like feel without sacrificing breathability. This fabric is durable, resists shrinking, and maintains its shape, making it ideal for garments that combine sophistication with everyday wearability.
At ETQ, our mercerized cotton shirts offer a refined, elegant look with the comfort and practicality of cotton. It’s the perfect choice for those who appreciate understated luxury and long-lasting quality in their wardrobe essentials.
Twill Fabric – Iron Free
Twill fabric is a durable, structured material characterized by its diagonal weave pattern, offering a distinct texture and visual depth. Known for its strength and versatility, twill is used in garments that require a bit more durability while maintaining a polished, professional look. The diagonal weave provides natural wrinkle resistance, making it an excellent choice for both casual and formal attire.
What sets our Iron-Free Twill apart is its advanced treatment that ensures a smooth, crisp appearance straight out of the wash, eliminating the need for ironing. This fabric is designed to stay sharp and maintain its form throughout the day, providing an effortlessly polished look with minimal effort. Its ability to resist creasing and maintain its structure makes it ideal for busy professionals or frequent travelers who need their clothing to perform as well as they do.
