Finding a comfortable, stylish walking shoe is challenging. Finding a pair on sale is even harder. That’s why I couldn’t believe it when I saw Rue La La is having a secret sale on my go-to comfy walking shoe brand: Veja. The brand, known for its supportive, on-trend styles, has become a staple amongst all age ranges — especially among celebrities like Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, Reese Witherspoon, and Jennifer Garner, as well as Travel + Leisure‘s editorial director Susan Brickell. I purchased my first pair of Veja’s years ago, and they remain one of my favorite sneakers to travel with because I feel like I could walk for miles in them. Is there anything better than a dependable, on-trend pair of sneakers? Possibly, but either way, I can say Veja shoes are worth the hype.
I am partial to the classic V-12 silhouette as an everyday shoe, but the brand has also released sportier styles like the Dekkan Sneakers, so it truly has something for everyone. Right now, Rue La La has 86 different styles on sale, including the best-selling Veja Campo Sneakers, with prices starting at $120. The sale ends in two days, and the hottest styles are selling out quickly, so get to scrolling.
Veja V-12 Leather Sneakers
When I travel, a pair of all-white sneakers is one of my packing essentials. While they aren’t the most practical for more adventurous vacations, they are perfect for exploring a new city, and I can attest that a classic all-white sneaker is one of the best purchases I’ve made. They go with everything all year round, from jeans and a sweater to sundresses. And an added bonus? This style is made with leather material that’s easy to clean.
Veja Rio Branco Alveomesh and Suede Sneakers
The Veja Rio Branco Alveomesh and Suede Sneakers are a retro-inspired style from the brand. Like the other styles, it is ideal for walking around all day. The difference is that the black color and mesh detailing give the sneakers a sportier touch. With its lightweight silhouette, the casual sneaker is great for everyday wear, whether sightseeing or just strolling through the park.
Veja Recife Logo Leather Sneakers
Who has time for laces anymore? I’m kidding, of course, but this pair of grip-take strap Veja sneakers are easy to slip on and off when you’re on the go — especially if you want to get through TSA security smoothly. The straps add a fun and on-trend feel to the classic silhouette, fulfilling all those childhood nostalgia feelings. I also can’t help but love striking contrast when it comes to my sneakers, so I’m a big fan of this black-and-white option, currently available in all sizes.
Veja Dekkan Ripstop Sneakers
Veja is known for its everyday, casual sneakers, but it also carries plenty of durable, sporty styles if you’re on a bit more rugged terrain. The silhouette is not a hiking shoe, but it does have more support than your average Veja sneaker, with a cushioned sole and vulcanized outsole made with recycled material. As if that weren’t enough, the shoe comes in an exciting blush pink colorway with multi-colored laces. If you’re looking for something more subtle, though, a neutral shade of the Dekkan Alveomesh Sneaker was also just marked down.
Veja Campo Leather and Suede Sneakers
The Veja Campo Sneaker is one of the brand’s most popular styles. If you want to add more color to your sneaker collection, this white leather pair with a pop of matcha green on the suede side logo and back fits the bill. The best-selling sneaker is hard to find on sale, so snag this discounted pair while you can.
