We’ve combined innovation and twodecades of design prowess to engineer a sneaker that’s meant to adapt, not expire.

REWRITING THE RULES OF LUXURY FOOTWEAR BEGAN WITH ONE QUESTION

What if a sneaker could adapt instead of expire?

That was the spark. Catherine Meuter and Stefan Mathys asked the question over a beer on a balmy summer night in 2019.

With over 2 decades in luxury footwear, Catherine and Stefan found themselves fed up with the industry's endless waste, disposability, and trend cycles built to collapse.

"We weren’t chasing disruption for disruption's sake. We were chasing longevity in luxury, a smarter design that would outlive landfills, and that made disruption inevitable."

Why? Because 90% of sneakers end up in landfills not long after they’re bought. Because the industry rarely thinks beyond next season. Because most shoes are built to be replaced.

We built a smarter sneaker that refuses to follow, we built VNY to break the cycle.

We call it LONG-LUXE.

Our Pillars

Intentional fashion shouldn't be thrown out and rebought every season. It should endure with you, through scuffs, stories, and time.

That’s why we created Long-Luxe, a modular sneaker made to adapt, not expire.

Longevity Over Waste

We rebel against the buy-break-replace cycle.

VYN sneakers typically have 3x life vs other sneakers. With our modular heel system, you don’t need a new pair when the heels wear out, you just need an upgrade.

Italian Luxury at it's Strongest

We rebel against the idea that luxury should be untouchable, something to keep clean, keep boxed.

Our sneakers are built to be worn, used, and should tell a story about the steps they’ve taken. Scuffs aren’t flaws; they’re proof of movement.

Engineered for Adaptability

We rebel against luxury that can't be molded.

We believe design should adapt to how you live, how you dress, and how you move. Our modular heel system gives you the freedom to switch up your look or upgrade a worn heel. One sneaker, multiple ways.

Innovation Meets Intelligence

We rebel against the idea that timeless fashion has to be stale.

Luxury evolves. And so should the technology behind it. The future of footwear isn’t just about design—it’s about intelligence.

Smarter design. Rebellious nature.

Meet the first sneaker that lets you change your look and extend your wear, all through our innovative modular heel system.

This is rebellious luxury.

Whether you’re matching a mood or replacing wear, every heel swap is a small act of reinvention and a smarter way to wear.
