Full details
The adidas VL Court Base trainers are designed for men seeking a timeless, low-top sneaker that seamlessly bridges the gap between casual comfort and refined style.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers and do not contain the technical cushioning or stability features required for running.
How should I clean the white leather?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the leather, as this can cause discoloration or stiffness.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Yes, the VL Court Base generally follows standard UK sizing conventions.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as the mechanical action and heat of a washing machine can damage the materials and bonding agents.
What is the primary material of the sole?
The sole is made of durable rubber, designed to provide long-lasting grip and comfort.
Is the padded collar supportive?
The padded collar is designed to provide extra comfort and prevent chafing around the ankle during regular daily wear.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the upper material
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather-blend shoes; using shoe trees when not in use can help minimize deep set-in creases.
Difficulty removing scuff marks
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a gentle magic eraser on the synthetic parts, being careful to avoid the dyed leather areas.
Soles feeling slippery
New rubber outsoles may have a factory residue; wear them on dry pavement for a short period to increase surface friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your VL Court Base trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the surface after use. For tougher marks on the synthetic or leather sections, use a damp cloth with mild soap.
- Drying: Always let your shoes air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can degrade the adhesives and material integrity.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shape of the trainer over time.
- Compatibility: These shoes fit standard UK sizing. If you wear thick performance socks, you may want to ensure you have selected your standard size for the best fit within the padded collar area.
