Veja - what's the hype?

Very expensive, look pretty much just like normal trainers.. yet worn by stylish people.. so of course I want a pair!
Does anyone own a pair and can explain what's so great about them?!

I have a pair.
They look nice but to be honest I don't think they let your feet breathe and Fi t them quiet warm in this weather.
Might be just me but I also find they lost their colour fairly quickly.

Wouldn't repurchase

I have a pair. I bought them because of them being ethically made (a lot of their range is vegan). They are so comfortable and didn’t take any breaking in. My first day I wore them I walked miles on a city break no problems and wore them all week. So different to my previous city break when my ASOS trainers left me with blood running down my ankles. My ankles were shredded!
Personally I would recommend them.

I think they look uncomfortable, they have similar soles to converse but with a trainer type top. Don’t understand it. Proper trainer bases are so comfy.

If it’s right on, people will fall for it. Herd instinct.

MrBobLobLaw · 04/08/2019 18:21

Yeah I agree @NoTheresa I feel like I'm just falling for the hype..
I like the design but just felt there must be something about them that set them above everything else for the price..

I have read a lot of comments on previous threads saying they are uncomfortable and you're better off sticking with a pair of Stan Smiths.

I love mine and I’m usually strictly a Nike air girl. They are useful for more of a smart look imho. They certainly arent bouncy like Nikes, but cheaper and still comfy. Well made and being ethical (unlike Nike) is a bonus.

Everyone’s feet are different i had to give my stan smiths away as they were so painful. Very high arch though.
