From ethically sourcing all materials to treating its workers fairly, every step of Veja's production process is thoughtfully considered. Made from leather, these 'Esplar' sneakers are named after a charity that supports local farmers. They're detailed with light-gray suede 'V' logos and contrasting navy heel tabs. The durable soles are derived from wild rubber trees in the Amazonian forest.
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.
'VEJA soles are made with 20-30% natural rubber. purchased directly from seringueiro (rubber tapping) communities in the Amazon forest. VEJA uses a high proportion of organic cotton in the canvas, laces and uppers of many of its models.'
