WOMEN'S RECIFE LOGO SNEAKER

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. 

Slip into a world of unmatched comfort as the Recife model features a cushioned insole designed for a plush feel with every step. The minimalist design is elevated by the iconic V logo, a symbol of transparency and responsible practices that VEJA proudly represents.

The bovine ChromeFree leather is smooth and light. Coming from farms located in the south of Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul), it undergoes an innovative tanning process where no chrome, heavy metals, or dangerous acids are involved. 

By simplifying the tanning process, the use of chemicals and energy is limited. Water use is reduced by approximately 40% and salt by 80%. After tanning, the water is recyclable. 

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.
