category: Veja | Vegan Sneakers

Although few people know it, Brazil is the third-largest shoe producer in the world. For a long time, production there was primarily for the domestic market. However, more and more shoes from there are gradually finding their way into the wider world. One of the brands that has had its production in Brazil for years is VEJA.

VEJA's home base is actually in France, specifically Paris, and it's precisely there that the ideas and designs for the brand's high-quality sneakers are born. However, the shoes are manufactured in Porto Alegre in southern Brazil. The raw materials also largely come from Brazil itself, which ensures comparatively short transport routes—at least until they are exported worldwide. The organic cotton used comes from the Ceará region in the northeast of the country, and the B-Mesh is made from recycled PET bottles in Santo André near São Paulo. Finally, the soles are made from wild rubber from the Amazon region in the state of Acre, on the border with Bolivia and Peru.

The result is sustainably produced, absolutely high-quality, and extremely good-looking sneakers that are second to none and are rightly enjoying growing popularity in the fashion world. More than enough reason for us to offer you VEJA's vegan models and include them in our range.
