Product Care
Before you wear the shoes for the first time, we advise you to waterproof your shoes using the stain and water repellent spray and to repeat this operation regularly. Concerning the canvas and leather parts, we suggest maintaining them with the cleaning foam and cleaning brush.
Size and Fit
Veja sneakers fit true to size. If you are in between two sizes, it is better to take a size down.
