Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit and use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.
Discoloration from dirt or scuffs
Clean promptly with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner or a magic eraser very gently on white leather areas.
Laces becoming worn
Replace laces with standard shoe laces of a similar length. Veja offers replacement laces, or any standard lace will suffice.
Slight stiffness upon first wear
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially until they conform to your foot shape.
