Recife Velcro-Strap Leather Trainers

Veja’s white Recife trainers are named after the northeastern coastal city in Brazil and characterised by three velcro straps across the forefoot. They’re crafted from ChromeFree leather and rest on grooved soles made from a blend of recycled and wild rubber that's responsibly sourced from the Amazon forest.
