Customer Reviews VEJA V-10

I love these! I normally wear a 7 or 7.5 in sneakers/athletic shoes, but most reviewers said to size down and I ordered a 6 and they fit me perfect. The leather is stiff, but I am sure they will break in just fine in a few days. Very cute style as well.

A bit stiff at first, but I just wore thicker socks and they started to mold to my feet right away. Also, you have to straighten the tongue the first few times because leather is stiff but thin. But the stiffness also gives excellent support. Soles have great shock absorption and cushioning. It’s not a soft “squishy” cushioning, but good, comfortable support. I have bad plantar fasciitis, and use a 3/4 arch support with them (so can’t really comment on arch support), and can wear these all day with lots of time on my feet, which is great. They did run 1 European size small. I had to return 43 (I’m a women’s 12) for a 44, which was perfect.

Stylish look. Unfortunately, the first time I put them on, I pulled on the lace to tighten my shoe before tying, and the lace tore right through the lace hole! Leather was extremely thin and stiff and clearly of poor quality. I can't comment on fit or comfort, as I never got that far. Very dissapointing.....

I don't think the quality is the same on these V-10's as when I purchased the same ones from another higher end online site. I had both in hand, and there was a definite difference in the quality and appearance. These just didn't look like expensive sneakers they way the others did. The color white was not as bright the cushioning was much less on these and even the sizing was different. I was hoping to keep them but something is off with these, I am a fan of Zappos but will be returning them.

Sizing has been tricky for me with Veja sneakers. My first pair were the Esplars and after reading reviews, I got size 39 (US size 8). I’m normally a size 8, but after breaking them in they were way too big. When looking for a pair of V-10s, I decided to go with a size 38 (US 7). These fit perfect from the beginning. It took me about two days of wearing around the house with thick socks to soften the leather up. I’m so happy I bought these when I did because they are so hard to find. Can’t wait to get lots of wear out of these!

These are most definitely the least comfortable pair of sneakers I own, and it’s not even close. The tongue folds over in parts and slides around and the heel is not comfortable at all. If they didn’t look as good as they do, I would send them back. I wouldn’t buy them again though - especially for the price.

I wear a size 8 in all shoes from sneakers to heels. I originally ordered a full size down (from a different site) because of the reviews and they were an exact fit. I had absolutely no wiggle room. I ordered the 39 based on Zappos recommendation and these are much more comfortable. These are about a half size large, nothing my athletic inserts didn't solve. As other reviews state, the tongue is stiff however I no longer feel it when wearing these shoes. I love the look, feel and overall fit of this shoe in fact I don't think I will ever buy another brand of sneaker. Yes! I love them....

After only about 2 days of breaking in, these shoes are already feeling very comfy! The all-white is stylish with a nice boxy look, and surprisingly easy to keep clean. I have wide feet and the toes feel plenty comfortable.

I should have listened to the reviews saying that they run big. I wear a size 5 and I need these in a 4, Euro 35. Please bring Veja styles in 35 for petite feet.

Size was a little large, but any size lower would have been too small. The are a bit uncomfortable and cause blisters, but after wearing them for a few days, the wear in pretty quickly.

I really wanted to love these shoes. Super cute and stylish. But soooo uncomfortable. The tongue was weird. Extra long and stiff. It jabbed so much into my legs the few minutes I had them on try them and walk around in them they made a painful mark. Sadly they had to go back. That tongue really needs to be shortened.

I agree with other reviews I've read that these shoes are quite uncomfortable. The tongue is far too long and is quite stiff, and I imagine it would absolutely gouge the front of my ankle if I had walked for any length of time in them. Perhaps it will break in over time? I will endure some pain for a beautiful pair of heels, but I strongly prefer my sneakers to be comfortable and not require extensive breaking in (and frankly I'm skeptical that the tongue of this shoe would ever be comfortable). Too bad, because they are a great-looking shoe.

Runs large - I go a whole size down. Also, the tongue on the shoe is a hard material that comes up to your ankle and is very sharp.

These sneakers really are gorgeous and I love that they're made with ecological and sustainable materials. I got the 36 which says it's a US 5. I'd say it's a 5.5 to a small size 6. So definitely bigger than a 5 but I think the next size down would be too small. I get the "tongue being too big" but it's not that it's too big, it's just stiff. I think it will loosen up with time. If not, it's a single sheet of leather... you could cut it down or push it to the side. I have a few fit issues but I'm hoping with a little breaking in, they'll get softer. The style is right on. I love them.

I am a US size 8 and ordered the size 8 despite the reviews I have read to size down. They did not have size 7 in stock so I figured I’d try the 8. While they are slightly bigger than my feet, they are not so big that I would return them. I’m wearing them now with some no-show socks and they seem fine. I’m please with the way they look and they are very comfortable out of the box even though I have read that they need to be broken in. I bought a leather shoe cleaning care kit to keep these looking good. Overall I’m happy with my purchase!!

Love these shoes. I have a narrower foot though so they are a little wide but not terrible. Comparable to most street shoes like this. The tongue is stiff at first and rubs into your ankle when walking so just know it takes a few times to dull the material of the tongue down.

Hey fellow Zappos family. I purchased the sneaker in a Size 37 (6 women). I normally wear a size 7.5 M/ 8M depending on shoe style. In sneakers I normally wear a size 7M. This sneaker runs an entire one size too big (for me). The 37 fits me perfectly. I gambled with purchasing this size and based my decision from previous reviews. I did not have any issues with the tongue stabbing me or breaking the sneaker in. The tongue is long but it didn’t bother me to the point of complaint (no shade to other reviewers). Hope this helps!

I love the look of these shoes! They are very stiff when you first wear them and the tongue will dig into your foot. I wore thick socks and broke them in around the house. Still not the most comfy shoes, but worth it bc they are so cute.

Sporty Chic! They definitely run big-- I'm normally a 7.5, purchased a 7, and still have a little room at the toes.

Reading all the comments, I somewhat understood what the other buyers mentioned about the tongue and stiffness of these shoes. However these are made out of sustainable materials including a durable premium leather upper which perhaps in this level of a quality sneaker, should be stiff and take some time breaking in. For me, right out of the box, it was good to go. Great sneaker.

I saw the pictures of Meagan Markle wearing these in Australia and knew that I had to have them! I usually wear a women’s 10 to 11 so I ordered the 42 and they fit perfectly. The shoes were stiff at first and I got blisters but after a couple weeks they became very comfortable and I now want to wear them all the time. I highly recommend these sneakers.

I've been eyeing these sneakers for a loooong time, so I would probably have made them work no matter what. I was fully expecting to struggle with breaking them in, but I was pleasantly surprised! The tongue is a little sharp, but I just folded it over for the first couple of wears.. this softened it up. I ordered my normal size, and while I think the shoe feels about a half size too large, I don't think I could have gone down a size. I think the extra room helps with the comfort, as well. Overall - I definitely recommend them and will likely purchase an additional colorway :)

I’ve been looking at buying these sneakers for quite some time, so I was happy to see them on Zappos! I originally bought these in my regular size 7 but once I got them them I realized the other reviews were spot on by saying they run very big. Thanks to Zappos great return policy I returned the 7 and got the size 6 really quickly. The size 6 fit perfectly! They definitely will take some time to break in because the leather is pretty stiff but they look great and will be worth it.

I love the look of these sneakers. Very on trend. So far they are comfortable, they obviously need to be broken in but day one is good. You need to buy your size based on the Euro sizing, the US size listed next to them are totally wrong (maybe they’re men’s US sizes?) Once I got into the correct size using the Euro sizes, they do still feel about a half size big, but they are ok for me.

Love the look of these shoes, but the tongue of them is so hard and digs into the front of my ankle, which make them really uncomfortable.
