Sole craft since 1937

Vibram has been making rubber soles in Italy since 1937, the year Vitale Bramani built the first lugged rubber sole for the mountains. The V-Riley runs on that same idea, a multidirectional tread that holds its grip on wet pavement and loose ground alike. Underneath, the cushioning does the quiet work of keeping long days comfortable.

SIGNATURE DETAIL

Embroidered, not printed

The logo patch on the heel is embroidered with a raised stitch that lifts it off the surface, so it catches the light instead of sitting flat against it. It takes longer to produce than a print or a stamp, and that is exactly why it is there. Look for that same refinement everywhere else on the shoe.
Soft from the first step
INSIDE THE SHOE

Soft from the first step

The terry cloth lining is a detail lifted from the running shoes of the eighties, where it earned its place because it stays soft against bare skin and does not chafe over longer distances. It runs through the collar and the tongue, the two places a sneaker is most likely to rub. The texture is the same towelling you know from a sweatband, warm to the touch and quick to dry out after a long day. No breaking in, and comfortable from the first wear.
