Veja works closely with local farmers and factories to ensure its sneakers are responsibly made from start to finish. This 'Esplar' pair is made from white leather with contrasting black heel tabs and 'V' appliqués on each side. The soles are created using wild rubber sourced from the Amazon rainforest. Wear them with anything from jeans to midi dresses.
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.'
