Veja V-10

First look

The V-10 is Veja's retro-runner shape: more layered and sportier than the flat Campo, with a leather upper, leather panels, a recycled polyester lining and a rubber outsole that Veja says includes Amazonian rubber. It is made in Brazil. On Veja's Canadian site the full-price adult V-10 is CA$230; the closest to plain white in the current line is White / Platine (VI0220737), white leather with a pale grey V.

If you want the shoe in pure white, Veja Canada's outlet listed the V-10 Leather White (VX0201270) at CA$147, down from CA$210, when we checked in October 2026. Outlet stock moves quickly, so treat that as a lucky find rather than a standing price. SSENSE also carries V-10s; the White & Black pair was CA$173 on sale. Adult sizing is unisex from W4 to M14.5, kids' versions exist, and Veja's CWL (non-leather) V-10s sit in its vegan range.

The V-10 suits casual outfits more than dressy ones; it has a bulkier, sportier look than a court sneaker. In a Canadian winter, smooth leather is easier to wipe free of salt than canvas or mesh, but it is not waterproof. Veja recommends a damp cloth, no machine washing, and a waterproofing product renewed every 3 to 6 months. Our picks are based on construction, materials, price and availability in Canada; hands-on Lab results are being added as each pair finishes testing.
