FAQs
What does 'VS-1 Contact' signify?
The 'VS-1' series takes inspiration from early '00s PUMA football boots, and the 'Contact' aspect of the VS-1 Contact Trainers specifically relates to the shoe's design being influenced by the impact of contact with a football.
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
While inspired by athletic footwear, the VS-1 Contact Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday use. They are not recommended for intense athletic activities or professional sports.
How do I clean the molded details?
Use a damp cloth to gently wipe the molded details. For more persistent dirt, a soft brush with a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
What is the closure system?
The trainers feature a traditional lace closure system, enhanced with a lace cover for a cleaner aesthetic.
What is the heel type?
These trainers have a flat heel type, providing a stable base for casual wear.
What is the width of the shoe?
The VS-1 Contact Trainers are designed with a regular width.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.
Troubleshooting
Laces are difficult to adjust with the cover.
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets before securing the cover. Loosen the laces slightly before attempting to adjust them under the cover.
Slight discomfort on the sides.
The trainers have a regular width. If you experience discomfort, try wearing them with thinner socks or consider breaking them in gradually with shorter wear periods.
Material scuffs easily.
The molded details, while stylish, may be susceptible to scuffs. For minor marks, try a gentle cleaning method as described in the care instructions. Protective sprays for footwear may offer some preventative measures.
