FAQs

How do I waterproof my Veja Recife trainers?

Before the first wear, use a waterproofing spray specifically designed for leather. Hold the can about 15-20 cm away and spray evenly. Let them dry completely.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

No, the Veja Recife trainers should not be put in a washing machine, as this can damage the leather and construction.

What is the best way to clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution or a dedicated leather cleaner, then wipe clean and allow to air dry.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, these trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They do not provide the specialized support required for running or high-impact sports.

How should I store my Veja Recife trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dustbag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.

What materials are the insoles and outsoles made of?

The insole is made of textile for comfort, and the outsole is made of synthetic material for durability and traction.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Troubleshooting

Leather scuffs easily

Apply a leather conditioner or protector. For minor scuffs, try a specialized leather eraser or cream matching the shoe color.

Waterproofing wears off

Reapply a suitable waterproofing spray every few months, especially after cleaning or exposure to significant moisture.

Insole feels less cushioned over time

Consider using after-market insoles for additional cushioning if preferred.

Outsole losing grip

Ensure the outsole is clean. If wear is evident, replacement by a cobbler may be necessary for continued use.
