FAQs
What is the inspiration behind the VS-1 collection?
The VS-1 collection draws inspiration from the radical DNA of early '00s match day style, specifically referencing the V1 football boots and the impact of contact with the ball.
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and fashion. They are not optimized for high-performance athletic activities like running or intense sports.
How do I clean the molded details on the upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt from the molded details. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution and a soft brush can be used gently. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the closure system?
The closure system uses laces with an added cover for a cleaner aesthetic.
What is the heel type?
The VS-1 trainers feature a flat heel type for a stable and comfortable base.
Can I wear these with thicker socks?
The trainers have a regular width and a rounded toe. While they accommodate standard socks, very thick socks might make the fit feel snugger.
What other colorways or sizes are available?
The VS-1 collection comes in various colorways and sizes. Please check the product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Ensure laces are loosened before putting them on. If still tight, the shoes may be the wrong size or width for your feet. Consider if the regular width and rounded toe are suitable for your foot shape.
Difficulty with lace cover.
The lace cover is designed to tuck laces under. Ensure laces are tied neatly and not too bulky before tucking them into the cover.
Material scuffs easily.
The upper materials, especially with molded details, can be prone to scuffs. Clean minor scuffs with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, consider a specialized shoe cleaner for synthetic materials. Regular care will help maintain appearance.
