Gridline Everyday Sneaker

Mens perforated casual sneakers built for people who stand and walk for a living. The woven upper is punched with rows of air channels, so heat leaves the shoe instead of sitting on top of your foot, and a flat lace threaded through seven pairs of metal eyelets spreads the pressure across the instep instead of pinching one spot.

Mens Perforated Casual Sneakers: What Holds Up Over a Shift

A moulded rubber midsole runs the full length and carries vertical grip ridges under the forefoot, while the outsole below it is cut with horizontal tread and two oval recesses that flex with the foot. A grey overlay wraps the heel to hold the back of the shoe in shape, and a webbing pull tab makes the pair easy to pull on.

Fit and Sizing

The supplier’s own chart puts EU 39 at 245 mm of foot length and EU 44 at 270 mm, growing 5 mm a size. Take your usual EU size; if your instep is high or your foot is wide, go one size up, and if your instep is flat or your foot is narrow, one size down. Measure the longer foot and use that number.

Care

Brush off dust, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and let the pair air-dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash: the eyelets and the moulded midsole do not survive a drum.
