Worst leather sneakers
I was so excited to finally get a pair of sneakers but they were so disappointing. The leather is incredibly stiff. And once I put them on, they were so uncomfortable. I couldn't get them off fast enough. I'm not sure if the materials have changed or what but these are amongst the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever put on my feet. They are going back ASAP.

Love my vejas
I have several pairs of vejas. They are my go-to and highly recommend if you've never tried them. Yes, they are on the pricer side but well worth it. The quality of the materials -- all leather - and this particular type of leather I have found holds up really well. You can easily sponge off marks with a magic eraser and wash the laces. Voila like new again! I wanted another pair because I wear them so much that yes eventually, after several years of being work ALL the time, they do start to look worn. They look great with jeans, leggings. I look effortlessly pulled together and they are so comfortable.

Not for narrow feet
These are too wide for narrow feet. I tried multiple sizes and my heels slid out of all of them. Just FYI. If you have narrow feet, save your money.

Fantastic Travel Shoes
For those who are saying they’re stiff, it’s leather. You have to wear them in…. Like most other shoes…. I broke them down v well and wore them EXCLUSIVELY on my 2 week Japan trip. I was only tired from walking 20k steps on the daily but these bad boys continued to be comfy. Brought them to multiple other trips and events like music festivals, Europe, weekend getaway trips and etc.
Break them in and it’ll be the comfiest shoes ever. Also I sized down from my usual size. Usually US 8 and got a 38 because leather expands and it sure did after breaking them in.

Veja Fan
I love Veja’s. This is my 3rd pair and I’ll keep buying them. They’re flat but that doesn’t bother me and you can always add an insole if needed. They’re just different enough but still stylish. I’d recommend. I also like that they use organic and recycled materials.
