Men's trainers can now be integrated into casual, travel and even certain smart-casual looks. For them to work well, silhouette, materials, colour and proportion with the trousers matter more than a particular “trend” label.
Rivera's current selection includes its own trainers and a broad range from Premiata. This guide helps you choose without depending on sold-out models or one specific season.
What to look for when choosing men's trainers
Silhouette
A low-profile sneaker creates a different result from a trainer with more volume or a more substantial sole. Think about the trousers you will wear with them most often.
Materials
Always check the specific composition of the model. Leather, suede, technical fabrics and other combinations require different care and can change the appearance of the footwear.
Colour
White, grey, brown, navy and other neutrals are often easy to integrate, while a multicolour combination can become the focal point of a simple look.
Real use
Trainers for walking many hours are not the same as footwear used occasionally in the office or for informal dinners. Prioritise use over trend.
Premiata: Italian design and a wide range of models
Premiata is an Italian brand whose company history dates back to 1885 and which now maintains an extensive sneaker collection. Rivera currently carries numerous active references, including families such as Mick, Steven, Russell, Mase25, Moerun, Nous and others.
Browse the Premiata collection to check available models and sizes.
Rivera trainers
Rivera also offers its own trainer models. Availability changes each season, so check the men's collection and product pages for composition, sizes and characteristics.
How to wear trainers in a smart-casual look
Combine them with straight trousers, chinos or relaxed tailoring and pay attention to hem length. A very substantial trainer may call for a different leg shape from a cleaner-profile model.
In professional environments, always adapt the outfit to your company's actual dress code.
Trainers with a suit: when do they work?
They can work in informal or smart-casual settings if the suit, footwear and occasion allow. This is not a universal rule for weddings, formal meetings or environments with a strict dress code.
Frequently asked questions about men's trainers
Which trainer colour is easiest to combine?
It depends on your wardrobe. Neutrals often offer more combinations, but a colour you wear regularly can be just as practical.
Is Premiata still available at Rivera?
Yes. Rivera currently carries an active Premiata selection. Check the online collection to confirm styles and sizes.
Does Rivera still sell Satorisan?
There are currently no active Satorisan references in Rivera's catalogue, so this guide no longer presents the brand as part of the current range.
Choose by fit, use and styling possibilities
Rather than chasing an annual trend, compare silhouette, materials and use. Discover the Premiata selection and current men's collection to find the model that best fits your wardrobe.
