Veja’s white V12 trainers are made using ecological materials and processes such as vegetable-tanned chrome-free leather and sustainably sourced wild rubber. They’re shaped to a low-top silhouette with a lace-up front and a camel suede V logo and corresponding heel tab, then lined with a cushioned blend of organic cotton and recycled polyester.
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.'
