What you see in the background of the sneakers

These sneakers are a little special. It's neither a famous brand nor a trendy one, but you can see where it is made and what you think. The materials used are environmentally friendly materials such as organic cotton and those procured by fair trade. Many people are involved in a pair of sneakers in front of them. That's what the French brand VEJA sneakers feel like.

Leather sneakers ESPLAR EXTRA-WHITE SARI features a bright pink logo. If the neon color is also used at one point like this, it will be easy to incorporate, and it will make your usual outfit look more pop. It goes well with both denim blue and chinos beige, and I'm looking forward to matching it with socks when matching it with a skirt. If you have sneakers that are simple, durable, and fit your feet the more you wear them, it will be even more fun to go out.

VEJA means "see" in Portuguese. A sneaker brand from France that asks "what is on the" other side "of shoes?" And hopes that it will be an opportunity to turn to the "other side" of manufacturing. Although shoes are inevitably consumed, VEJA has a production background where you can see the particular materials and creators, and there are people-to-people encounters and stories.

Commitment to material selection

Generally, rubber farmers sell the rubber itself, and the primary products have low added value, but by refining and shipping the collected rubber as it is at the farmer, it is appropriate for direct transactions without intervening brokers. We have a way to get paid. In addition, it is said that it will be a good quality rubber product because the rubber material is refined on the same day it is collected. Natural rubber is mixed with a coagulant within 1 hour of collection, filtered, and made into a sheet to prevent the rubber from oxidizing, increasing its purity and making it comfortable and supple.

For the upper material, we use vegetable acacia tannin leather and consider the environment as much as possible. VEJA also has a vision for the future, aiming to eventually manage a series of production processes such as breeding and processing of beef in-house. In addition, the cotton material used in the insoles and parts is organic cotton grown in northern Brazil, and cotton is procured from producers in the state of Ceara in northern Brazil in accordance with fair trade rules. Furthermore, with organic cotton materials, we do not have extra inventory and manufacture and supply products within a reasonable range of annual production of 15 tons.
