Kate Middleton’s favorite Veja sneakers are comfortable straight out of the box
Kate Middleton has a dazzling assortment of crown jewels to wear for official royal events, but that hasn't stopped her from choosing much more attainable accessories in her daily life. In fact, the Princess of Wales loves some of her go-to pieces so much she’s been spotted in them multiple times over the years — her rose gold Veja sneakers are one accessory that she's been wearing on repeat. If you’ve been looking to give your wardrobe a royally-approved upgrade, read on.
Kate recently wore the cute low-top sneakers during an official visit to Landau Forte College but the shoes have been in her rotation for at least two years. The sleek leather sneaker has a removable cushioned insole for maximum comfort and the lace-up design makes it easy to find a supportive fit.
The shoe is also eco friendly: The durable sole is made from a mix of Amazonian rubber, rice waste and recycled rubber while the soft lining is made from a recycled polyester and organic cotton blend.
Kate’s exact pair has the brand’s signature V logo on the side in a pretty shade of metallic rose gold and a heel panel in the same gorgeous color. The rest of the shoe is a classic white, which makes them super versatile and easy to wear with just about anything.
And Kate isn’t the only one who is a fan of the sleek kicks, her sister-in-law, Meghan Markle, wore a white and black pair back in 2018, and hundreds of Amazon shoppers have given them their seal of approval, with many raving about how they are comfortable straight out of the box.
“These shoes are the best investment,” raved one. “I’ve worn them so many times already. I don’t know why people are saying they’re not comfortable. I took them out of the box and traveled on vacation and walked all over Italy with them without breaking them in. My feet never once hurt. They look amazing with everything! Get them now!"
“These shoes are the most comfortable sneakers I’ve worn. They are worth the money. Very stylish and cute. They go with everything,” wrote reviewer. While another verified shopper said, “These tennis shoes go with anything in my closet. They are true to size and are comfortable to wear all day long. I love them.”
Like most fashion items worn by the Princess, her exact pair of rose gold accented leather sneakers is, unsurprisingly, currently sold out in several sizes. But if yours isn’t available don’t fret — there are nine other colors available with more sizing options.
