FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the VL Court Base is designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker, not for athletic running.

How do I determine my size?

These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing; they are designed with a regular fit.

Are the materials sustainable?

Yes, the upper contains a minimum of 50% recycled content as part of adidas' commitment to reducing waste.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the structural integrity and the adhesive of the cupsole.

Do these shoes provide arch support?

They offer standard flat-sole support common in court-style sneakers; if you require specific arch support, an aftermarket insole is recommended.

Is the upper made of real leather?

The VL Court Base described here features a soft synthetic upper, which is durable and easy to clean.

Troubleshooting

The laces keep coming undone.

Ensure you are using a double knot if the laces are stiff; synthetic laces can be more slippery when new.

Shoes feel slightly tight after long walks.

Loosen the laces across the midfoot to allow for natural foot swelling during the day.

Scuff marks on the white sole unit.

Use a white eraser or a damp sponge with a small amount of non-abrasive cleaning agent to gently remove surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your VL Court Base shoes last, follow these care and setup tips:

  1. Fit: The shoes feature a regular fit; ensure you wear standard athletic socks to maintain the intended feel.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents.
  3. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the rubber sole or damage the synthetic material.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration.
