Beautiful But ...
I bought the black on white Recife. I think it's beautiful and well made. I usually wear size 6, and this fits me well. I would love to keep it, however, I find the leather too stiff for my comfort. I don't want to take the chance of having blisters and unnecessary callus. I still give it a 4 star because of how beautiful it looks.... Show more

Comfortable Fashion
I bought these sneakers for walking around Disney. I wore them every day for 5 days and walked 9+ miles per day. They were very comfortable and suited their purpose. I love the rose gold accents. It makes them look a little fancier than your average sneaker. Then only downside is the length of the velcro straps. when closed they only cover half the velcro. It looks funny and gets caught on the pant legs of my jeans. For this reason I would not recommend. I am going to try a similar style with laces.... Show more

cute but not comfortable
I own other very comfortable styles of Vejas and was excited to get these. They are like walking on a board. No cushion hardly at all. They are also wider than I would like. The fit reminded me Adidas Shells. I wish they were more narrow and had the same cushion as my other Vegas.... Show more

Lace Free and Perfect!
I hate tying shoelaces and when I saw these, I was sold immediately. I have another pair of lace Veja’s which are comfortable and was confident these would be too, and, they are!! I have a normal foot width and at first the velcro didn’t fully fold over to cover the base of the velcro but after a few wears they did. I get a lot of compliments on this style. Love that they are easy to put on, snap, and go. Oh and the best part is you don’t have to worry about washing laces and re-lacing!... Show more

Love these shoes
This is my second pair of VEJA’s and I love these. The Velcro is so easy on and off and they are so comfy. The Velcro for me is not short and I have a slightly larger top foot. They do fit a tiny bit larger. I wear a 9 and bought 9 but I knew this from my other pair but I wear thicker no show socks. This style sells out quickly so I was happy to get these... Show more

quality issue!
I want to love these. love the look, the comfort, but I wore them 2x, and the second time the rubber at the front/toe part ripped! for $185, I would have these sneakers would have lasted at least a couple years. Bummed because I bought these for an upcoming trip and now I’m back to square one.... Show more

Sporty and cute
I read the reviews on this product about how the velcro doesn't close all the way and they are correct, it does not. I think though that the wearer notices that way more than anyone else would. I also think that is likely by design because the leather will stretch in width so you will be able to pull the straps further as you wear them and if you didn't have extra velcro available it wouldn't stick. I did size down but I felt they were comfy and looked nice!... Show more

Stylish sneaker disappoints
I really love the colour and style of this sneaker. The Velcro makes it a bit sleeker than tie up sneakers. I wanted to love this sneaker but unfortunately the leather is not at all soft and rubbed against my bunion. I needed the size up which is sold out.Hence I returned and got a refund.If you have a wide foot, size up or avoid this sneaker. Looks great but not super comfortable.... Show more

Uncomfortable and poor design
The design of these trainers was so disappointing that I returned them. The stiff tongue is an issue, particularly as it’s too long, so just cuts into your ankle. I loved the idea of the Velcro straps, but they were too short, so just exposed a lot of velcro which would get dirty over time. I wish Veja would just sort out their design issues because I’d love a styl it sh ethical trainer, but I’m just not willing to compromise on comfort.... Show more

Why are the Velcro straps so short?!
I've owned two pairs of the old Veja tri-lock Velcro shoes. They are my favorites. Looks like this is the replacement and I'm really sad about it. The grommet that the strap goes through was metal in the previous design and now it's just sewn with white thread...it looks really cheap. Also, the Velcro straps only stretch across half my foot! These look ridiculous and sadly will have to be returned. Now I'll have to hope I can find the old version somewhere out there... Show more
