Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for skateboarding?

While the VL Court series is inspired by skate culture, these specific 'Base' models are primarily designed as fashion lifestyle trainers.

Are the materials waterproof?

The synthetic upper is water-resistant to a degree but not fully waterproof; it is best to avoid deep puddles.

Can I remove the insoles?

The interior features a standard textile lining; for the best experience, we recommend using the shoes as provided.

How do I choose the right size?

The VL Court Base fits true to size. If you prefer to wear thicker socks, you may want to consider a half-size up.

How do I keep the white parts clean?

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning foam or a mixture of water and mild detergent with a soft cloth for regular maintenance.

Is the upper genuine leather?

No, the upper is constructed from soft synthetic materials, which is part of the brand's commitment to using recycled content.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight across the instep

Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets to relieve pressure, then re-tie for a more relaxed fit.

Visible scuffs on the synthetic upper

Gently rub the area with a soft-bristled brush or a cloth dampened with a gentle soap solution.

Heel slippage while walking

Try the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure the ankle more firmly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comfortable padded ankle collar for all-day wear
  • Robust rubber cupsole provides good longevity

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-impact athletic performance or running
  • Minimal arch support compared to dedicated performance trainers
  • White colourways require regular cleaning to maintain appearance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your VL Court Base shoes maintain their look and feel, follow these guidelines:

Setup: These sneakers come with standard lacing. Adjust the laces to your preference to achieve a comfortable, snug lockdown across the midfoot.

Compatibility: They pair exceptionally well with denim, chinos, or athletic shorts. Their low-top profile is best complemented by low-cut or invisible socks.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a damp cloth. For the synthetic upper, use a mild soap solution if necessary.
  • Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the synthetic materials or adhesives from warping.
  • Protection: Consider using a standard sneaker protector spray to help repel water and dirt, especially on white colourways.
