VEJA

Rio Branco Mesh And Leather Trainers

£125

Product Details

Veja is rewriting the path of our favourite footwear by looking beyond mass manufacture to more sustainable, eco-friendly methods. The Rio Branco trainers are a product of this process; they see a hexamesh upper (that’s a mix of organic cotton and recycled polyester, by the way) with panels of suede and leather and set on a wild rubber sole (sourced from the Amazonian forest, no less). They’re topped off with the label’s signature V patched to the side, so there’s no question about where they're from.

  • Upper: Leather and mesh
  • Lining: Fabric
  • Sole: Rubber
