Shoes

Veja shoes are highly appreciated for their stylish aesthetics, durability, and sustainable production. However, they are often critiqued for their comfort and high price.

The leather is stiff and I sized up a half size 

Super cute! These are my work casual sneakers and they are comfortable enough for a day of walking. 

I have a pair of Campos and love them. They're a great, long lasting, comfortable shoe. I live in NYC so I walk a lot and these keep up well with me. They clean pretty easily and style well with a wide variety of clothes. 

MOST PERFECT PAIR OF SHOES THAT WORKS FOR EVERY OCCASION WITH EVERY OUTFIT.

I absolutely wear these shoes to death - guilt free!

I am currently on my second pair of Vejas. 
Reasons why the shoes are great: they look cool (I love the aesthetic), they last a really long time (my first pair lasted me 3 years of excessive wear) and they are produced more sustainably than other shoes out there. 
You do have to break them in depending on the model, and even after that they might not be the most comfortable pair depending on the shape of your foot - but overall, I am still a fan!

Low stock/inventory was an issue for a while but that may be unavoidable! 

Love my Vejas! I had my first pair for more than two years and they held up really well. I wore them on my daily three-mile walk commute to my office! I love how easy they are to clean—especially after walking through the FiDi of San Francisco. I'm on my second pair now and I recently got a pair for my boyfriend as well. Excited to try some of their new styles!  

I used to own a pair a Veja's a couple of years ago and remembered loving them. I recently needed a new pair of shoes so I decided to get them again. I forgot how expensive they are! I bought a pair for 175. I ended up returning them though because they just did not fit right. They are super cute and go with everything, but I just don't think they are worth the price.

I hope the newer styles last as long as the old ones. I know that they have a repair center in France, but I would love to see something similar in the US. In particular, I wish there was a way to fix the scuffs on the white part of the vegan leather. 

At first, these shoes were hard to break in, but I have now owned my pair since 2018. I have washed and replaced the laces several times and the shoes are still going. These shoes have many miles on them and I can truly say they are built to last. They are now scuffed and a bit beat up, but that is a long time to wear a pair of shoes. The biggest sustainability win for these shoes aren’t that they are made of vegan leather, but that they keep going year after year. 

These are my 17 year old’s favorites, he has the Campo and they run true to size. We both think they look great and they have lasted much better than his last few pairs from other brands. They are great day-to-day, but not for working out. We will definitely replace them with the same when he outgrows them, which will probably be in 20 minutes. 

I love my Veja sneakers. They are so comfortable. It feels like you are walking on clouds. Lots of color options and fit true to size.

I like the style of the shoes i got but they were not the most comfortable fit. 

The laces are quick to deteriorate - could be made more resistant. 

Bought the Women's Veja V-10 Sneaker as a basic white sneaker to have in my wardrobe. They're easy to dress down or up and are easy to spot due to their iconic V logo.  It took about two weeks to break them in but afterward were super comfortable. The sole provides a .5" height boost. Overall, the Veja is a great quality shoe for the price and gives a unique design spin to the basic sneaker trend while staying sustainable.

My friends have been turned off saying they are uncomfortable. I think you just need to break them in. However, their insides are bare and so not seem to provide support or cushion. Despite this, I’d say one of the most comfortable sneakers I own.

I LOVE Veja. I have two pairs of their classic sneaker and they’re perfect. They go with everything and help craft a manicured yet laid-back look.

I've gone through multiple pairs of the V-10s, the first pair I broke in very easily and the second pair was a bit more painful (wore thick socks for a week before they became super comfortable). I love how minimal these shoes are and how they go with every outfit. I recently purchased the Venturi runners, which are more of a statement, but also very muted and go with everything.

I really like the profile of these shoes (the V-10) for spring and summer. The break-in period wasn't too bad. The one downside is I don't find them very supportive. I've worn them for days with lots of walking and my knees tend to hurt the next day. In the moment, they're a great shoe. They have creased over time, but that doesn't bother me. 

I absolutely love these shoes! So many great styles, made with sustainable material, and the V on the side stands out anywhere, at least tome, I always notice people wearing them! Can be used for business casual, as well as their more casual or running shoes!

Great shoes! Lovely designs and super comfortable. I got Venturi lace up sneakers. 

Bought a pair of white veja trainers because of the sustainability credentials but have found they are not durable at all and have completely worn down on the soles after only 1 year so will not be re-purchasing and don't think they are good value for money.

they feel good quality but they are slightly bigger than expected for the size

I love these shoes. They're comfortable and stable to wear and look great. The brand's unboxing experience and mission of sustainable materials is also great.
