The Veja brand is the absolute pioneer on the world market for sustainably and fairly produced sneakers. For example, they only use fair trade rubber for the soles and fair trade organic cotton for the lining. If there are parts of the shoes that are made of plastic, this plastic is obtained from recycled plastic bottles. The shoes are then sewn in a modern factory in Brazil. The V-12 by Veja not only scores with its sustainability and high quality, but also with a cool design that is slightly reminiscent of a typical retro sneaker silhouette. In addition, the wide rubber sole and the removable insole give the shoe a super comfortable feel that perfectly rounds off your sporty outfit.

I bought a pair of Veja V-12 white/Marsala/ Nautico a few days ago and wore these for a few days.Look: very stylish and luxe sneakers.Quality: I have only worn them for a few days and I don't think there are any problems.Comfort: I can't compare them to running shoes like New Balance (different field), but they are very comfortable, but they need a little time to get used to because the material is leather and it takes a little time to get used to it.Size: This is something to keep in mind. I wear a US 11 (JPN 29cm) in most manufacturers, I tried them on at the Nordstrom store and bought them, so I didn't have any doubts. 44 is just right for these sneakers, and I think I would have been lost in the middle size when I looked on the web. I strongly recommend ... MoreI bought a pair of Veja V-12 white/Marsala/ Nautico a few days ago and wore these for a few days.Look: very stylish and luxe sneakers.Quality: I have only worn them for a few days and I don't think there are any problems.Comfort: I can't compare them to running shoes like New Balance (different field), but they are very comfortable, but they need a little time to get used to because the material is leather and it takes a little time to get used to it.Size: This is something to keep in mind.

I strongly recommend trying them on, but in my opinion, the length is longer and the width is narrower.I hope this review will be of some help to you.

Recommended by Anna Bey.They fit perfect! Slightly large but provide extra comfort.Didn’t take long to break them in.I only wear them with bomba socks! The two just work well together for me.I wear them ALL the time I go out, super comfy.These are my nice casual shoes for shopping, casual restaurant, traveling, or work!I’ve seen a lot of fashionable women wear these in NY too so I had to try them, and so glad I did. Now thinking of buying a second pair.

Absolutely love my new Vejas & the color is stunning. Packaging was pretty & shoes came in perfect condition. Had a slight issue with shipping times, but the Tuckernut team proactively reached out to rectify it before I could even email first. Amazing customer service & seamless purchase! Will be buying from here again for sure. (Size 8.5/ Size 39 in Vejas)

I'm a consistent 8.5, but I got a size 8 with room to spare. They're a bit stiff in the tongue at first and you can expect some wrinkling in the leather, but after a few months they've formed to my feet. I love the style, ease to wipe off dirt and the insoles for my higher arch. However, I'm surprised to find they make my feet feel sweaty even with merino wool socks in cooler temperature.
I heard about Veja and purchased for my son and daughter-in-law but never for myself. Then I have decided to get one and my first Veja. I have a lot of sneakers and some are made of leather, too. No regret, of getting it, just fit right, I have ordered the 39, looks like a good quality and will soon break in. Purchased this for use on a cruise!
I read a lot of reviews regarding these shoes but wanted to give it a try as a birthday gift to my husband (He likes orange color, and these looked so good in the pumpkin color in photos!). He wears 9.5 all across the board, almost no exception. For this Veja V-12, I had to choose 43, as the 42.5 (for US 9.5) wasn't an option. However the shoes were too long. They also felt heavy. And like a few other reviews (on other websites) said, the tongue is ridiculously long and it cuts into the ankle area. My husband said they also felt strange at the sole - too low in the heel area and uneven. Overall we were disappointed. If the shoes fit, I think they can still look cute. (They look a bit vintage-ish, more than on the photos.)
I really like the look and style of these shoes—they're clean, classic, and go with so many outfits. The quality feels solid, but I found them a little stiff when I first wore them. I’m hoping they soften up with more wear, but overall, they’re a great pair of shoes if you’re looking for something stylish and durable.
I've been looking for a nice pair of low-key sneakers for everyday errands and/or for traveling. These are precisely the style I was looking for. Unfortunately, they do run big and, so, I had to return this pair (size 8, my preferred, plain color scheme). However, I'm keeping the size 7s in a fun color scheme (orange V against white shoe). I'm typically a size 7.5 for reference. The shoes are stiff but I'm hoping they'll soften up as other reviewers have noted. It was only after I ordered these that I realized the brand is currently popular with celebs. This doesn't really matter to me, but it affirms the style/quality I suppose. Looking forward to sporting them in Vegas for the holidays!
Excellent product, Excellent Quality! Fit is great( I usually take a 6.5 and in Veja, I find I am a 6), they run a little large so go down a size if you are in between sizes would be my suggestion.Very classic extra white shoe, and really comfortable . I highly recommend the Veja leather sneaker . I wear these with jeans , casual pants and they just give a little classic touch to your outfit!
Unsure which style I would like, I bought the V-10 (all white w. black V) and V-12 (white upper w. black V...tan “gum” sole) to test. Here was my take:I bought both shoes in a size 40, which is my size. They both fit true-to-size for me.The V-10 had the thin, hard tongue that everyone complains about. The V-12 has a fabric-backed tongue, which is still hard and on the thin side - and about an inch too long - but it is a little less rigid than the V-10.Both styles fit similarly, so I ended up choosing based on my favorite aesthetic. I picked the V-12 because I liked the gum sole, which not only looks cool, but it won’t show dirt as badly as the white-sole styles.As others have said, the shoes were not comfortable out of the box. I had three issues:Issue 1: ... MoreUnsure which style I would like, I bought the V-10 (all white w. black V) and V-12 (white upper w. black V...tan “gum” sole) to test.

I picked the V-12 because I liked the gum sole, which not only looks cool, but it won’t show dirt as badly as the white-sole styles.As others have said, the shoes were not comfortable out of the box. I had three issues:Issue 1: I have an average-width foot, and the toe box was a bit narrow at first. Fix: They became comfortable once I broke them in.Issue 2: The footbed. I have a very high arch, and these shoes (both styles) have zero padding. Fix: I added an insole. Problem solved.Issue 3: The tongue is too long and was rubbing against my ankle. Fix: I tried the “pull the tongue to the side” trick, but within 10 steps, the tongues kept working themselves back to the top. Fix: I ended up just folding my tongues under and tucking the last inch or so under the laces. This works perfectly for me....and I actually like the look better without the long tongue sticking out.Break-in time for me was two full days of wear...walking 5-6 miles each day. On day three, these were super comfy.These shoes are so stinking cute, and with the break-in and minor fixes, they are now comfortable enough for me that I can walk miles and miles without complaint. Definitely worth the trouble.
