FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the VL Court Base is designed as a casual lifestyle shoe and lacks the cushioning and support required for running.
Are these shoes sustainable?
Yes, the upper contains a minimum of 50% recycled content as part of Adidas's commitment to reducing plastic waste.
Can I use these for court sports like tennis or badminton?
These shoes are not intended for court sports; they are lifestyle trainers and do not provide the lateral support needed for court play.
How do I clean the rubber outsole?
Use a stiff brush or a damp cloth with water to remove dirt and debris trapped in the tread pattern.
Are they true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for a regular fit, but you should check the size guide to ensure the best personal match.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feeling too tight or loose
Re-adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets moving upwards to customize the fit.
Scuff marks on the synthetic upper
Use a soft-bristled brush or a cloth with mild soapy water to gently scrub the affected area.
Odour buildup after long wear
Remove the inner liner if possible and allow the shoes to air out in a well-ventilated area for 24 hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your VL Court Base starts with a proper fit; use the standard lace closure to ensure the tension is evenly distributed across your midfoot. These shoes are highly compatible with casual and smart-casual attire. To keep them looking fresh, wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the adhesives in the cupsole. If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the shape of the upper.
