FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The Veja V-10 Trainers are designed for casual wear and daily use. They offer comfort for walking but are not specifically engineered for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I clean the rubber 'V' logo?
The rubber 'V' logo can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Gently wipe it clean and then dry with a soft cloth.
What is the origin of the Amazonian rubber used?
The Amazonian rubber used in the sole is sourced responsibly from the Amazon forest, supporting sustainable practices and fair trade.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture is not recommended to maintain the leather's quality.
What does 'CWL' mean in some Veja V-10 models?
CWL stands for 'Corn Skin,' which is a vegan alternative material sometimes used by Veja as an upper, derived from corn waste.

What is the warranty period for Veja V-10 Trainers?
Specific warranty information should be checked with the retailer at the point of purchase, as it can vary. Veja generally stands by the quality of its products.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Water spots on leather
Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before applying a leather conditioner.
Difficulty pulling shoes on
Utilize the pull tab at the back of the shoe. If they remain tight, consider using a shoehorn.
Discoloration on white rubber sole
Use a mild soap solution and a soft brush to gently scrub the affected area. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
