Ethical Style with a Retro Soul The El Naturalista Oroel N5435A proves that a trainer can have a conscience without sacrificing style. Hailing from La Rioja, Spain, El Naturalista has spent decades crafting footwear with genuine environmental criteria—no greenwashing involved. The Oroel is one of their most successful designs in the men's athletic lifestyle segment.

Design & Craftsmanship Featuring a retro-runner inspired silhouette, these trainers combine grey suede with light blue technical fabric, navy blue reinforcements, and cream laces. The signature honey-coloured natural rubber sole is the hallmark of El Naturalista’s collection. The result is a premium-looking shoe that ages beautifully and transitions seamlessly from urban streets to light natural trails.

The Conscious Choice Ideal for men aged 30–55 who value material quality over loud logos. This isn’t a shoe for the hype-beast chasing the latest Nike drop; it’s for the man who wants a purchase that will still feel right three years from now. Built with LWG-certified leathers, recycled linings, and eco-friendly dyes, the Oroel offers verifiable sustainability.

Size Guide El Naturalista trainers feature a generous fit with a wide toe box.

• Between sizes? Choose the smaller size. The ample fit compensates, and a size too large may lead to heel slippage and rubbing.

• Wide feet? Highly recommended. These are among the most anatomically respectful shoes on the market.

FAQs

• Do they run large or small? They are generous. Order your usual size or size down if unsure.

• Are they comfortable for standing all day? Yes. The ergonomic last and soft lining make them superior for long hours.

• Are these running shoes? No. They are lifestyle trainers with a retro runner aesthetic. Great for walking, not for training.

• How do I care for them? Clean the suede with a specific brush and apply protector spray before use. Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth.

• Is the sustainability real? Yes. El Naturalista uses verifiable certifications like LWG (Leather Working Group).
