FAQs

What does 'chromefree leather' mean?

Chromefree leather is produced using an innovative tanning process that avoids the use of chromium, heavy metals, and hazardous acids. This method reduces water consumption and salt usage, making it more environmentally friendly.

How do I clean the Veja Recife trainers?

Clean the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. The lining and outsole can also be wiped with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, consult specialized leather care guides.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

No, the Veja Recife trainers are designed for casual wear. They offer comfort and grip for everyday activities but are not engineered for high-impact sports or running.

What is the benefit of the recycled polyester lining?

The recycled polyester lining provides enhanced breathability, helping to keep your feet comfortable and drier during wear.

How durable is the rubber outsole?

The outsole is made from sustainably sourced rubber, designed to provide excellent grip and traction for everyday use, offering good durability for casual wear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather can be treated for some water resistance, these trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to protect the material.

What sizes are available?

Veja Recife trainers are available in various adult sizes. Please check the product listing for specific size availability, as it can vary by retailer and colorway.

Troubleshooting

Stiff leather upon arrival

Chromefree leather can sometimes feel a bit firm initially. Wear them for short periods to gradually break them in. Avoid over-conditioning, as it can alter the leather's appearance.

Discoloration on leather

If slight discoloration occurs due to cleaning, try using a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid colored cleaning products that might transfer.

Straps not holding securely

Ensure the velcro straps are clean and free of debris that might prevent a firm closure. If straps appear worn, contact customer support.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, performance on very wet surfaces can vary. Exercise caution and ensure the outsole is clean of mud or debris.
