Our notes
A fresh take on this classic sneaker silhouette with a focus on using natural sustainable materials.
The uppers are formed from stitched panels made with Spanish vegan leather and a specially made Tencel™ weave knit, cut low so they sit below the ankles. Tencel™ is derived from sustainably grown wood sources (FSC®), harvested from certified and controlled sources.
Certified as compostable and biodegradable under industrial, home, soil and marine conditions, it can fully revert back to nature. It’s compliant with Din Certco, Vincotte and US BPI compostability standards.
The use of Tencel™and the perforations on the toes allows these sneakers to stay cool and breathable through the summer. The linings are formed from a two tone grey Tencel™ and organic cotton mix. It’s really soft to the touch, and allows socks or no socks. The linings help air circulate and they wick moisture keeping your feet dry and hygienic.
They’re fully washable by hand or put them in a short cool wash with a towel (to protect from the wash drum). We put in biodegradable compressed cardboard toe puffs, counters and insole boards (FSC®),Tencel™ sewing threads and padding. Your feet rest on biodegradable insoles made from wood fibers and natural latex. Even the lace tips are made from a biodegradable bioplastic.
The high profile outsoles (1.5cm drop differential: 3.5cm on the heel and 2cm on the front) made in Portugal from rubber containing 70% recycled rubber content provide great cushioning and traction.
Finished with our signature WVS embroidered pull tag made from recycled polyester.

Customer Reviews
These shoes looked great when I got them, and still look fairly good after a year, but that's where my positives end. Below are the problems I've had with these shoes:
- BAD FIT - I had to order three different sizes to find one that would fit correctly. Not true to size at all. The ones I landed on still didn't fit very well and slip while I walk in them. If you want them to fit snugly theb you sacrifice your toes rubbing against the front. After a month of owning these I developed plantar fasciitis, which I can't for sure blame these shoes for, but I suspect they didn't help.
- LOW QUALITY - The materials on this shoe leave a lot to be desired. I own a pair of WVS Boots and they're excellent. These, not so much. The insoles that came with the ones I ordered were damaged on arrival, and it took over two months for them to send replacements, and they were very uncomfortable so I had to get custom third party insoles for them. The material on the inside has also worn away after only a year of light use. The base of tge shoes is also wearing away. The ends of the laces have also come apart. They look OK from afar but up close they look pretty rough.
Really disheartened by these shoes as I really support the mission of WVS and have had a good experience with their other products (boots, belts). I would not recommend WVS trainers.

These Munich 2s look fantastic, aesthetic and fashionable. I had very high expectations of this brand. However, the quality is poor. I've had them a year now and only worn occasionally and not really walked in them much. Out of the box material beneath the inside soles were showing and looked bad but I let this go thinking its the outside what matters. But not even a few months in, the inside lining started showing wear and then eventually ripped. It's quite bad now
Fitting wise, this isn't a wide fit. But it's not overly narrow. Narrow enough to feel and slightly see it.
The out side remains good, I've no issues with that.
I've not contacted their customer service so cannot comment on that. If I had been early enough to point out the flaws, I have no reason to believe they wouldn't stick to their policy and got me an exchange or refund. I'm just that cba asked guy to go through the hassle of exchanges and refunds. Though I'm now going to have to look for another pair as the ripped lining is extending towards the top / outside and will be seen.
These trainers are my fifth purchase from WVS, as I have been continually impressed by the looks, comfort and quality of their products. However, after only a few months of light wear, the insoles on these trainers have worn on both insoles. I'm still giving four stars as they are otherwise great trainers.
