Rio Branco Trainers - White / Natural

Veja Rio Branco Trainers in White / Natural. An ever-popular style from social and ecological activist's Veja, the Rio Branco combines a lightweight upper with a spongy sole to create a comfortable running trainer. The upper of the shoe is constructed using alvomesh, a breathable and 100% recycled material that pairs beautifully with suede detailing. The suede is made using the underside of bovine leather, which receives brushing treatment to make it softer before it is coated with non-harmful chemicals to protect it from light rain. Underfoot a combination of sugar cane and recycled EVA offers up sustainable cushioning, while Amazonian rubber and rice waste make up the durable outsole. Branding is served in the form of a playful 'V' logo as well as a variety of debossing around the silhouette,
