Novesta Trainers

Novesta trainers and Novesta shoes have been handcrafted in the same factory in Slovakia since 1939. As an official UK stockist, we offer a range that combines natural rubber soles with organic cotton and hemp uppers for durable, everyday wear. Known for clean lines and sustainable production, Novesta footwear provides versatile comfort for both urban and outdoor settings.

Novesta Trainers: Materials & Construction

Every pair of Novesta shoes is made using original machines and traditional vulcanisation methods. This process presses the natural rubber sole onto the organic fabric upper, leaving the distinctive foxing marks that are the brand's signature. This method avoids toxic glues, making many models in our collection vegan-friendly and highly durable. Each pair reflects a commitment to practicality, comfort and responsible craftsmanship.

Our range features the brand's most iconic designs. The Star Master is a classic low-top plimsoll, while the Star Dribble offers a high-top sporty silhouette.

If you prefer a vintage runner aesthetic, the Marathon Trail brings cushioned performance with a rugged tread.

About Novesta Trainers

Novesta Fit and Care Guide

Choosing the right size is the most important part of buying Novesta trainers. Because these shoes are still made on original machinery, the fit can vary between models. The Star Master and Star Dribble often run slightly large, so you might consider a size smaller if you are between sizes. The Marathon Trail range typically fits true to your standard UK shoe size.

To keep your trainers in top condition, we recommend using specialist shoe care products. While the canvas and rubber are highly durable, regular cleaning helps maintain the natural materials. For the best experience, pair your new shoes with quality socks from our collection.

If you are looking for specific colours or seasonal styles at a lower price, you can often find them in our footwear sale. We update our men's trainers and women's trainers regularly to ensure we have the latest releases from the Slovakian factory available for our UK customers.

Novesta FAQs

The Novesta Star Master and Star Dribble usually run a little large. We recommend choosing a size down if you are between sizes. However, the Marathon Trail model generally fits true to size, so your standard UK size should be correct.

Many Novesta trainers are 100% vegan. The Star Master and Star Dribble models made from cotton or hemp with natural rubber soles contain no animal products. Always check the specific product description for material details.

While many canvas Novesta shoes can be washed, we recommend removing the insoles and using a cold, gentle cycle. To maintain the life of the natural rubber and organic cotton, it is often better to hand wash them with a soft brush and mild soap.

Novesta trainers have been manufactured in the same factory in Partizánske, Slovakia, since 1939. They are one of the last purely European-produced footwear brands, using original machinery and traditional handcrafted methods.

The distinctive 'tire mark' or foxing around the sole is a result of the vulcanisation process. This is where the natural rubber sole is pressed onto the cotton upper at high heat, ensuring the two parts never peel apart without using toxic glues.
