FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity. They do not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for running or high-impact sports.
How do I protect the suede from the elements?
You can use a suede protector spray, available at most shoe care retailers. Apply it before wearing the shoes and reapply periodically, especially after cleaning.
What is the fit like?
The Veja Volley trainers generally offer a standard fit. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to size up for a more comfortable fit, especially with the suede and leather materials.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, leather, and the structural integrity of the trainers.
How often should I clean my Veja Volley trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed based on wear. For the suede, regular brushing (e.g., weekly or bi-weekly) can help maintain its appearance. Deeper cleaning should be done when stains or significant dirt accumulate.
What does 'Organically Treated Leather (OT)' mean?
Organically Treated Leather refers to leather that has been tanned using more natural and less chemical-intensive processes compared to conventional tanning methods.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Ensure the suede is completely dry before brushing.
Water stains on suede
Allow the trainers to air dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and restore the texture. For persistent stains, professional cleaning might be necessary.
Laces are dirty
Remove the laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water, or place them in a laundry bag and wash on a gentle cycle with your clothes. Air dry.
General wear and tear
Regularly inspect the trainers for loose threads or sole separation. Minor issues can sometimes be repaired by a cobbler. Consistent care will prolong their lifespan.
