Veja Sneakers Ireland

Veja are the French house behind the sneaker quietly worn by half of Paris and increasingly all of Ireland. Founded on a simple idea — make a beautiful trainer with full transparency on where the materials come from and how the people who make them are paid — Veja’s Esplar V Knit and leather styles have become the directional alternative to the bigger sneaker brands. Wild rubber from the Amazon, organic cotton from Brazil, and a price point that respects the work.

The shoe itself is what makes the story work. The V Knit hugs the foot in a way most leather sneakers cannot, and the Esplar leather is the sneaker you wear when you want something quieter than a Golden Goose but still made with intent. Pair with cropped denim, a fine knit and a long Acne scarf for the weekend, or with relaxed tailoring for an off-duty office look. If you are sneaker-shopping more broadly, our Golden Goose edit sits alongside this in the boutique.

At Les Jumelles in Galway we hold authentic Veja stock — sizing tends to run slightly small, so we recommend ordering a half size up if you are between sizes. Ireland-wide delivery, easy returns, and the team is on hand for sizing advice by phone or in person at the boutique.
