Quick verdict

A green high-top in Louis Vuitton's LV Trainer silhouette, listed in EU 38–44 with a calf-leather upper and a TPU outsole embossed with the Monogram flower. There are no buyer reports on this exact listing, so sizing rests on line-level LV Trainer claims that consistently point to sizing down. Confirm insole length before ordering.

Pros

  • · Green is the colorway reviewers call the standout: tonal embossed Monogram described as low-key and easy to pair with workwear or casual outfits.
  • · Line-level reviewers describe that green version as light and comfortable without break-in blisters.
  • · Catalog lists an imported calf-leather upper and a private-mold TPU outsole with Monogram-flower embossing.
  • · Listed in EU 38–44, with 35–37 and 45–46 available as custom order/custom order.

Cons

  • · LV Trainer owners report no ventilation perforations and a stuffy feel, plus a stiff sole some replace with an aftermarket insole.
  • · Some leather colorways have hard toe boxes that pinch at the sides.
  • · The calf-leather/canvas upper is stiff when new and needs a break-in period.
  • · Sizing is not consistent across colorways — the green version was reported more padded, leading at least one buyer to take a smaller size in green than in white/black.

Fit notes

Louis Vuitton's own LV Trainer pages advise ordering one size down; Chinese forum consensus is 1–1.5 EU sizes down from Nike/Adidas, with wide-footed buyers staying closer to their usual size because the toe box is narrow. Reports conflict — one narrow EU 36 wearer had no spare room — so check insole length.

Buy if

You want the green high-top Trainer look and will confirm fit by measurement first. Line-level reports say the LV Trainer runs large — roughly one to 1.5 EU sizes — and reviewers single out green colorways as the standout version.

Skip if

You need a shoe that breathes or flexes straight out of the box, or you won't verify insole length before ordering. LV Trainer owners report no ventilation perforations, a stiff sole and a break-in period, and sizing reports conflict enough that guessing is risky.

Buying FAQ

Common questions

Does this high-top run true to size?⌄

Line-level guidance says no: LV's Trainer pages advise one size down, and forum consensus is roughly 1–1.5 EU sizes down from Nike/Adidas. A reviewer in her usual EU 36 found no spare room at all, so insole length is the safer check.

Is the green colorway different from other LV Trainer colors?⌄

Buyers report the green version has noticeably more padding and more comfort than white/black, and at least one took a smaller size in green. Reviewers also describe green as the standout look, low-key and easy to pair.

What should I check when the pair arrives?⌄

Authentication guides flag shallow Monogram embossing on the midsole and outsole, a dull or undersized script Louis Vuitton side logo, oversized or misaligned perforation holes and messy stitching at curved sections. Lower-tier builds are also reported to arrive with a pungent chemical glue smell.

Are these breathable for all-day wear?⌄

LV Trainer owners report the model has no ventilation perforations and feels stuffy, with a stiff sole and a break-in period on the calf-leather upper. Narrow or pressure-sensitive feet may also feel the hard toe box on some leather colorways.

Evidence

Public notes used

color · pro · 55% confidence

Green LV Trainer colorways are consistently called out as the standout look — reviewers describe a dark olive-green Trainer with tonal embossed Monogram as low-key, easy to pair with workwear or casual outfits, light in weight and comfortable without break-in blisters (colorway-level praise, LV Trainer line).

quality · con · 60% confidence

Forum owners of LV Trainer report the shoe has no ventilation perforations and feels very stuffy, the sole is stiff ('like a brick') and can be improved with an aftermarket insole, and some leather colorways have hard toe boxes that pinch on the sides (line-level, LV Trainer).

quality · mixed · 55% confidence

The LV Trainer's calf leather/canvas upper is stiff when new and needs a break-in period before it softens to the foot; sizing down purely for looks is discouraged because it risks toe pain.

quality · con · 58% confidence

Authentication guides say replica LV Trainers (including Monogram-embossed versions) most often fail on shallow/soft Monogram embossing on the midsole and outsole, a dull and undersized script 'Louis Vuitton' side logo, oversized or misaligned perforation holes, and messy stitching at curved sections — useful checkpoints when QC-ing a rep pair.

Louis Vuitton's own LV Trainer product pages state the style runs large and advise ordering one size down from your usual size (line-level guidance for the LV Trainer family, not verified for this specific high-top).

Source
sizing · tip · 66% confidence

Collector-forum buyers report LV Trainers run very large: a wearer who is usually US 11.5–12 in Nike says LV size 9 fits best and size 10 in another colorway was snug, describing LV Trainer sizing as inconsistent but generous (line-level, applies to the LV Trainer silhouette).

Source
sizing · mixed · 52% confidence

Buyers note LV Trainer fit differs between colorways: the green version was described as having noticeably more padding (and more comfort) than the white/black version, so the same buyer took a smaller size in green than in white/black (colorway-level, LV Trainer line).

sizing · tip · 60% confidence

Chinese sneaker-forum consensus for LV Trainer is to size down roughly 1–1.5 EU sizes versus Nike/Adidas; a US 10 wearer was told size 9 is 'safe' regardless of foot shape, while wide-footed buyers may stay at their usual size because the toe box is narrow.
