‘Wata II Low CM Suede’ sneakers

Beige and cream ‘Wata II Low CM Suede’ sneakers from Veja. Made of suede, this lace-up design features a water-based screen-printed V logo and recycled cotton lining. The insole is made from Amazonian rubber, bio EVA, recycled EVA and organic cotton. The cream sole is crafted from Amazonian rubber, silica mineral, recycled rubber and synthetic rubber. The suede is made from the underside of bovine leather previously brushed to make it softer and more flexible. It comes from farms in the south of Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul). It is tanned in Brazil, without using any hazardous or prohibited chemicals. VEJA uses conventional dyes that comply with regulations. Special attention is paid to water usage during the tanning process. The suede is also coated with water-repellent oils without PFCs (chemical compounds) to protect the sneakers from light rain.
