Quick verdict

This black leather-and-mesh chunky LV Trainer-style sneaker is listed in women's 35–40 and men's 39–46. Sizing and comfort evidence is line-level LV Trainer reporting, not testing of this listing: it runs long, the sole is often called hard, and the upper narrow. Start half a size down and check width first.

Pros

  • · Leather-and-mesh upper with thick laces and a studded sole, per the listing — a deliberately bulky skate silhouette.
  • · Dense calf-leather Trainer builds are noted to resist stain penetration better than canvas (buying guide, leather builds).
  • · Bulky Trainer variants are credited with a height-boost effect and a forgiving fit for wide or flat feet (variant-level reports).

Cons

  • · Leather LV Trainer owners describe a hard, uncushioned sole — stiffer than an Air Force 1 — and suggest insoles for long walks.
  • · The same owner reports call the shape narrow and unfriendly to wide feet, and rate the shoe poor value for everyday commuting.
  • · The bulky variant is described as very large and heavy on foot.
  • · Leather seams kept in high humidity can develop mould and need dehumidifier or drying-agent care.

Fit notes

LV's own Trainer pages advise half to a full size down; buyers of leather colorways say about half down. Men's pairs reportedly run larger than women's, and the bulky variant is reported half to a full size bigger than the classic low. Width cuts the other way — the upper can squeeze when new.

Buy if

You want the bulky skate-shoe look in black leather and mesh, and you'll size down about half from your usual length while confirming width — buyers of leather LV Trainer pairs describe the upper as narrow when new, so a wide foot may need to go up instead.

Skip if

You need cushioned, all-day walking comfort. Owners of the leather LV Trainer call the sole hard with little cushioning and rate it poorly for commuting, and the bulky variant is reported heavy on foot. Silhouette and height are the point here, not underfoot comfort.

Buying FAQ

Common questions

Does this run large?⌄

LV's own Trainer pages state the style runs large and advise half a size to a full size down, and buyers of leather colorways put it closer to half a size down. That is line-level Trainer guidance, not testing of this listing.

Is it suitable for wide feet?⌄

It depends on the variant. Leather Trainer owners report the upper squeezes the sides when new and advise wide-footed buyers to go half a size up, while the bulky variant is described as softer and more forgiving for wide or flat feet.

How is the sole underfoot?⌄

Leather LV Trainer owners report a hard sole with little cushioning, and one recommends adding insoles for long walks. There is no independent comfort testing of this exact listing.

How should the leather be looked after?⌄

A buying guide notes that leather Trainer seams kept in high humidity can develop mould and need dehumidifier or drying-agent care.

Is there buyer feedback on this exact listing?⌄

No. The sizing and comfort notes are line-level LV Trainer reports; the nearest same-family feedback comes from a separate Weidian replica listing, which praises the fit but notes the shoe feels heavy.

Evidence

Public notes used

durability · mixed · 45% confidence

A Chinese buying guide notes the Trainer's dense calf-leather layers resist stain penetration better than canvas, but warns that leather seams kept in high humidity can develop mould and need dehumidifier or drying-agent care — durability guidance for leather Trainer builds, not for canvas/denim versions.

other · mixed · 50% confidence

Buyers of the bulky/maxi Trainer variant describe it as very large and heavy on foot, but credit it with a noticeable height-boost effect and a soft, forgiving fit for wide or flat feet.

Source
quality · con · 65% confidence

An owner of a pink/white leather LV Trainer complains the sole is noticeably hard, stiffer than a Nike Air Force 1, and that long walks make the soles ache — they recommend buying insoles. Relevant to the same chunky leather Trainer build.

Source
quality · con · 65% confidence

Another leather LV Trainer owner (black/white colourway) lists the cons as a hard sole with no cushioning, a narrow shape that is unfriendly to wide feet, and poor value for everyday wear — good for styling, not for all-day commuting.

Source
quality · pro · 40% confidence

Buyer reviews on a Weidian LV Trainer replica listing (a different Weidian item from this listing, same rep product family) praise the fit and construction, saying the shoe does not pinch or feel hard and that the upper looks close to authentic; one notes the shoe feels somewhat heavy and has a height-boost effect.

Source
sizing · tip · 85% confidence

Louis Vuitton's own product pages for the LV Trainer state "this style runs large" and advise taking half a size to a full size down from your usual size, across multiple colorways/materials (leather, denim, Nanogram). This is line-level brand guidance for the LV Trainer line rather than buyer evidence.

Source
sizing · tip · 60% confidence

Buyer notes on leather/monogram-canvas LV Trainer colorways describe the shoe as about half a size large, advising buyers to take half a size down (and to size down half if wearing thick socks). Applies to the same chunky leather Trainer construction class as this listing.

Source
sizing · mixed · 60% confidence

A buyer of the white/blue leather LV Trainer reports the length feels close to Nike sizing, but the upper squeezes the sides of the foot when new and eases after a few wears; wide-footed buyers are advised to go half a size up. Directly relevant to the leather Trainer construction in this listing.
