ETQ LT 03 Premium Nappa All Chocolate

The ETQ LT 03 Premium Nappa All Chocolate reinterprets retro basketball proportions for everyday dressing. Structured panels define the smooth leather upper, while a thicker tonal sole gives the silhouette substance. A mesh interior completes a design that draws on court footwear without being intended for play.

Wear it with relaxed trousers or denim for a cohesive, understated look. Supple Nappa leather feels soft from the first outing and gradually shapes to the foot, complemented by removable memory foam cushioning.

• Designed in the Netherlands and handmade in Portugal by ETQ’s longstanding family-run factory partner.
• Smooth Premium Nappa leather from an LWG Gold-certified tannery in Alcanena, Portugal.
• The upper is stitched to the sole rather than glued, allowing flexibility where the foot bends.
• Hand-lasted and inspected twice before leaving the factory.
• Every pair combines 20 to 40 components assembled by hand.
• Removable memory foam insoles conform with wear and can be exchanged for fresh footbeds or personal orthotics.
• ETQ-designed sole produced from a dedicated mould in a specified rubber blend, balancing flexibility for everyday walking with shape retention.
• Tonal outsole and mesh interior.
• Reinforcement inside the toe and heel helps preserve the shoe’s shape through repeated wear.
• Tonal metal eyelets and nylon laces maintain the understated finish. Spare laces are sold separately.
• Finished with ETQ’s signature square at the heel.
• Includes a reusable travel bag for carrying and packing.
• The white presentation box doubles as the shipping carton, avoiding another outer box.

Premium Nappa is full-grain leather finished for a smooth, supple feel while retaining the hide’s strong natural grain. ETQ sources its Nappa primarily from Curtumes Iberia in Alcanena, Portugal, an LWG Gold-certified tannery. Each hide is checked for finish, colour, surface and thickness before cutting. A tight, even grain and soft temper allow the leather to flex without sharp creasing, offering softness from the first wear without a break-in period and adapting to the foot over time.

Clean with a soft cloth lightly dampened with water. Occasionally apply a colourless leather cream to maintain suppleness. If the shoes become wet, allow them to dry naturally away from direct heat. Keep them in the supplied bag when storing.
