V-10 - B-MESH sneaker - White Natural Pierre

Since 2005, VEJA has been making sneakers differently infusing each stage of production with a positive impact. Environmentally friendly sneakers, made with raw materials sourced from organic farming and ecological agriculture, without chemicals or polluting processes. VEJA is the Brazilian word for "look". The two founders Sbastien Kopp and Franois Morillon chose this name because they want the customers to look beyond the product itself, the sneaker, focusing on how they are made instead. The V-10 model made out of ecological and sustainable materials stands for 10 years of love. - Upper in B-Mesh: made from recycled plastic bottles (100%) - Panels made out of leather and suede - Logo V made of rubber and rice waste (23%) - 100% organic cotton laces - Soft inner lining (33% organic cotton & 67% recycled plastic bottles) - Insole made of sugar cane (34%), amazonian rubber (11%), organic cotton (11%) & recycled E.V.A.* (8%) - 59% bio-sourced and recycled outsole: made from amazonian rubber (24%), rice waste (23%) & recycled rubber (12%) - Made in Brazil, in the region of Porto Alegre Advice The use of a washing machine is not recommended as it may alter the properties of the different materials. Before you wear the shoes for the first time, we advise you to waterproof your shoes with a spray adapted to the material and to repeat this operation regularly. MAINLINE Canvas models: the canvas can be brushed with cold water and soap, avoid putting them in the washing machine at risk that the leather inserts rub off on the canvas. Leather models: treat the leather with a specific leather care product (spray or cream). The suede sections can be maintained by dry brushing. CWL models: maintain the CWL with a damp cloth and soap
