FAQs
Are these shoes good for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual wear. They do not have the technical support or impact absorption required for running.
Should I buy my regular size?
No, it is highly recommended to purchase one size larger than your usual size due to the internal construction.
Can these be washed in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash leather shoes, as it can damage the materials and cause the sole to detach.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from smooth, durable leather.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While leather is more resistant than canvas, these shoes are not waterproof and should be kept dry to maintain the quality of the material.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight despite buying usual size
The VL Court 3.0 is known to run small; consider using a thinner insole or ensure you are following the recommendation to purchase one size up.
Leather surface shows scuffs
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently buff out surface scuffs.
Excessive heel slippage
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to include a 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' to provide extra security around the ankle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Sizing: Always account for the 'buy one size bigger' recommendation to avoid toe crowding.
- Break-in: Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the leather to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp, soft cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the leather finish and glue integrity.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the 3-stripes.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to maintain a snug fit across the midfoot, which helps preserve the structural integrity of the shoe over time.
