Veja Esplar Logo (Extra White / Black)

Introduced in 2011, the VEJA Esplar got its name from Brazilian NGO which brings technical support to the organic cotton farming families Veja works with in North Brazil since 2004. The VEJA Esplar sneakers are not your ordinary kicks, as they are made from recycled polyester for the fabric lining, Brazilian-tanned, REACH-approved leather as well as wild and fairly traded rubber, rice waste plus recycled rubber for the soles. Plus, these VEJA shoes are produced in a high standard International Labour Organization factory in Brazil. In addition, to make VEJA Esplar look and feel different, the design smoothly blends minimalist aesthetics with innovative technologies.
