FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

The Veja V-12 Trainers are designed primarily for casual and lifestyle wear, offering comfort and style for everyday activities. They are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size guide provided by Veja or the retailer. These trainers generally follow standard UK sizing. Ensure a comfortable fit, not too tight or too loose.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Using a water-repellent spray can offer additional protection.

How often should I clean my Veja V-12 Trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed based on wear and exposure to dirt. Regular light cleaning with a damp cloth for leather and brushing for suede is recommended to maintain their appearance.

What is the origin of the materials used?

The leather and suede are sourced from farms in Uruguay, reflecting Veja's commitment to sustainable and ethical material sourcing.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The Veja V-12 series is available in various colorways and material combinations. Please check product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Leather creasing excessively

Creasing is natural for leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Use shoe trees when not in use.

Suede appearance is dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent marks, a suede eraser or cleaner can be applied cautiously.

Discomfort during the first few wears

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they break in.

Color transfer from the shoe

Although unlikely with quality dyes, if color transfer occurs, ensure socks are not light-colored and consider a leather protector spray.
