APC Men's Shoes
APC is a French fashion brand originally founded in Paris as a ready-to-wear clothing line. They offer a variety of footwear styles for men including boots, sandals, and shoes in categories such as sneakers or slip-ons. These shoes for men span a range of materials, colors, uses, and measurements in both European and U.S. sizes. See manufacturer site for details.
What materials are used in APC shoes for men?The company uses several common materials to produce their lines of men's shoes. Some of these materials include:
- Canvas
- Leather
- Suede
- Composite materials
You can shop for men's boots, sandals or sneakers from this brand in either U.S. or European size measurements. European sizes start at EUR 40 and go up to EUR 45. U.S. men's sizes start at 7 and go up to 12.5 with other half increments in between. If you want to find your shoe size by measuring your foot at home, you can use these basic guidelines:
- Tape a standard sheet of paper to the floor and place your foot on it.
- Make sure you are not wearing any sneakers or slip shoes during this process.
- Trace an outline all the way around the outer edges of your foot.
- Draw straight lines to touch the outside of your outline.
- Measure the markings you made to determine both the length and width of your foot.
- Subtract three-sixteenths from these measurements to account for a small amount of space between the line and your foot.
- Use the final number to find your shoe size on a chart.
The company generally uses laces and eyelets as a means of fastening their shoes. The exception to this is the slip-on shoe as it is not designed to use fasteners such as slippers and loafers.
What style shoe patterns can you choose?Most lines of men's sneakers, sandals or boots come in a solid color or pattern. However, some models may feature two-tone or multi-colored palettes that are mixed in such a way as to provide them with a non-standard pattern instead.
How do you care for men's shoes?Although the specific instructions for caring for your new shoes may vary based on their materials, you can still follow these basic guidelines to care for them:
- Shoes made of canvas can be cleaned with a soft cloth dipped in a solution of lukewarm water and mild soap.
- You can use a soft brush to clean dirt or marks from suede shoes.
- You can use a soft cloth and soap to clean some men's leather shoes.
- Remove any traces of soap once you are done.
