On a hard insole and a tongue that’s long and rigid

A Veja fan mentioned how uneasy they were as they said: “it feels like wearing cardboard and the insole is hard.” Critics agreed on this as they noticed that there was not a ton of support for the soles.

About the tongue, the stiff and lengthy tongue has been noticeable enough to get negative feedback from Veja fans:

  • “The deal breaker was the tongue that is too long and will cut across the top of your foot if you wear short socks. I can’t believe they missed this great design flaw.
  • “The tongue is rough and cuts into instep.”

The Running trail Veja is lightweight and grippy

At 323 grams for a men’s size 9, these shoes are almost 18% lighter than other sustainable kicks on the market.
