Size Guide
Size Guide
Our newest production round of VAER sneakers fit true to size, which makes the whole process relatively simple. They are also a bit wider than our previous production rounds, therefore we recommend you to choose your normal size or go a size down if you are in between sizes.
From our customers (and our own experience) the shoes will form around your feet after a couple of times wearing them!
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Coating or waterproofing should always be done before using your pair of VAER for the first time.
You can either do this with a normal coating spray or with beeswax.
How to:
Coat the beeswax onto the
shoes (do not forget the seams) and work the wax into the shoes by a dryer in the end. The product increases the water's resistance, revives colors, and prevents rapid soiling.

Please send us an e-mail at hello@vaerupcycled.com and we will do everything in our power to produce the sneakers and send you an update once we have the sneakers.
Our impact
Because we upcycle and give textile waste a new life, we use less ressources compared to a normal sneaker.
We use as little plastic as possible in order to minimise the release of microplastics.

Danish design meets Portuguese craftsmanship
Our sneakers are designed in Copenhagen by Linda and Emma, who are experts when it comes to sustainable design. They pay specific attention to the quality and comfort of the sneakers, which are handmade in a family-owned factory in Portugal.
