FAQs
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the provided size guide which lists EU, US, UK, and Japanese lengths. If you are between two sizes, it is recommended to take the larger size.
What are the primary materials used?
The upper is made of organically traced leather (O.t. leather) and suede. The sole is composed primarily of Amazonian rubber, mineral silica, and synthetic rubber. The lining is 100% polyester, and laces are 100% cotton.
Are these shoes suitable for sports?
These sneakers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact sports or athletic performance.
How often should I re-waterproof them?
It is recommended to waterproof the sneakers every 3–6 months, depending on usage and exposure to moisture, using a product appropriate for leather and suede.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is strongly discouraged as it can damage the leather, suede, and overall construction of the sneaker.
Where are these sneakers made?
These VEJA Volley sneakers are made in Brazil.
What does 'organically traced leather' mean?
It signifies that the leather is sourced from farms in southern Brazil and Uruguay that adhere to high environmental standards, ensuring no harmful substances are used in the tanning process.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur with new leather or due to the sole construction. Try wearing them for a few more days. If the noise persists, check for any loose parts or consider applying a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe where the tongue meets the upper.
Leather appears dry or dull
Clean the leather with a damp cloth and apply a suitable leather conditioner or balm. Allow it to absorb, then buff gently.
Suede losing its texture
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions.
Laces fraying
Replace the cotton laces with new ones. Veja offers replacement laces, or standard cotton laces can be used.
