Veja is setting the pace when it comes to sustainable trainers, and now it’s joined the running shoe race. Equipped with a plethora of planet-friendly materials, including recycled plastic bottles, organic rubber, and banana oil, the brand debuts the Candor trainers in its latest collection. Styled with contrasting mesh panels, a signature “V” motif and a springy outsole, they’re good for sport, street and the environment, too.

A cult destination for trainers, VEJA is a sustainability success story. Sourcing natural rubber directly from farmers in the Amazon rainforest, VEJA prides itself on transparency, fair trade practices and ecologically-minded agriculture, ‘infusing each stage of production with a positive impact’. Proof that style and a social conscience can co-exist.
