Beige, black and blue ‘V-90 ZZ O.T. Leather’ sneakers from Veja.
Crafted from suede and leather, this model features perforations,
printed and embroidered logo and organic cotton shoelaces. The mesh
inner lining made from recycled materials was developed to acquire a
better resistance to friction. The organic-sourced and recycled insole
consists of sugar cane, Amazon rubber, organic cotton and recycled
EVA. It is set on a brown rubber sole made from organic and recycled
materials. This leather 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, the use of water is reduced by about 40% and the use of salt
by 80%. After tanning, the water is recyclable.
