V-Knit Sock Trainers

The knitted uppers of Rick Owens X Veja’s rust-red trainers have ribbed cuffs that accentuate the streamlined silhouette – they’re sustainably crafted from recycled plastic bottles. Hallmarked with both of the label’s logos below the heel pull loops, they have cushioned insoles that utilize natural latex sourced in the Amazon rainforest and are set on lightweight rubber-blend soles.
