Product Details
Since 2005, VEJA has been creating sneakers in a different way, mixing social projects, economic justice, and ecological materials.
VEJA uses Brazilian and Peruvian organic cotton for the canvas and laces, Amazonian rubber for the soles, and various innovative materials conceived in recycled plastic bottles or recycled polyester.
VEJA sneakers are produced in high-standard factories in Brazil.
The "V-12" sneakers pay homage to iconic retro silhouettes, reimagined for the modern era. The upper showcases a blend of ethically-sourced leather and organic cotton, creating a refined yet textured aesthetic that stands the test of time.
The bovine leather comes from farms in Uruguay, a country known for its culture of animal husbandry and the quality of its leather. It is tanned in Brazil without using any hazardous or prohibited chemicals. VEJA uses conventional dyes that comply with regulations. Special attention is paid to water usage during the tanning process.
All cotton employed by VEJA is certified organic.
The organic cotton we use has, at least, one of the following certifications: USDA organic, EU organic, GOTS, and Brazilian Participatory Guarantee System.
