FAQs

Are Veja V-12 trainers true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you are between sizes, consider the structure of the leather and choose based on your preferred comfort level.

Are these shoes vegan?

No, this specific model features a premium leather upper and suede detailing, though Veja does offer separate vegan-friendly lines.

How do I care for the white leather?

Clean regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against stains.

Can I replace the insoles?

The V-12 features a textile insole. While they can be removed, they are designed to provide the intended comfort for the specific geometry of the shoe.

Are these suitable for long-distance walking?

They are ideal for daily urban walking and casual wear, though they are classified as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels too stiff

Wear the shoes for 30-minute intervals over several days to allow the leather to naturally break in and soften.

Difficulty cleaning scuffs

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a gentle eraser for rubber components, ensuring you test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers come with standard lace-up fastenings that allow you to adjust the tension across the midfoot for a custom fit. Because they are crafted from real leather, it is important to treat them with care to preserve the material's integrity.

  1. Initial Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical solvents that could degrade the leather or the rubber sole.
  3. Laces: The organic cotton laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap if they become soiled.
  4. Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or the colours from fading.
