FAQs
What does 'Alveomesh' mean?
Alveomesh is a technical fabric made from recycled polyester that is breathable, flexible, and durable. It is designed to provide comfort and ventilation for the upper part of the shoe.
Should I order my usual size or size up?
Veja recommends choosing a size up from your normal shoe size for the Rio Branco Alveomesh models to ensure a comfortable fit.
How do I clean my Veja Rio Branco Alveomesh trainers?
Clean them by hand wash in cold water. Lay them flat to dry. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
These trainers are designed primarily for everyday wear, urban walking, and leisure. They may not offer the specific support required for intense athletic activities.
What materials are used in the construction?
The upper is made of Alveomesh, with panels of leather and suede. The lining is jersey (cotton, polyester), the insole is a mix of rubber, EVA, and cotton, and the outsole is rubber.
How do I care for the suede and leather parts?
For suede, use a suede brush to maintain its texture and remove light dirt. For leather and suede panels, spot clean gently with a damp cloth. Specialized cleaners for suede can be used cautiously.
What is the sole made of?
The outsole is made of durable rubber, providing good stability and traction for urban environments.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight
As Veja recommends sizing up, try exchanging for the next size. Ensure laces are loosened when trying on.
Discoloration on suede or leather panels
Spot clean gently with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Soles feel slippery
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the issue persists after cleaning, the grip may naturally reduce with significant wear.
Breathability seems low
Ensure the Alveomesh upper is not blocked by dirt or debris. Clean gently as per care instructions.
