Evoking a more playful profile that’s well-tuned to suit any urban wardrobe, these white-on-black V-10 CWL Shoes from Veja are intuitively crafted using 100% vegan-friendly materials and manufacturing methods. Constructed with corn-resin and PU-coated cotton uppers, C.W.L side panels and with a highly breathable interior jersey-lining constructed from 33% organic cotton and 67% recycled polyester, these slightly chunkier shoes boast an energetic tone and a more contemporary aesthetic. Made in the Porto Alegre region of Brazil, these laid-back sneakers are styled with an Amazonian-forest wild rubber insole and outsole, whilst the practical toe-box perforations, colour-matched stitching across high-stress seams and the neatly wrapped flat cotton laces assist in tying this ageless silhouette off in true minimalist fashion. These vegan shoes are signed off with all-white rubberised ‘V’ logo detailing across the side panels, high-rise ‘Veja’ branded black-on-white heel collars and with sleek white-print ‘V Veja’ branding across the pre-formatted tongues for added protection whilst out and about.

Founded by eco-conscious creative duo Sébastien Kopp and François Morillion, Veja has become a well-known brand thanks not only to its simple aesthetic but due to its boundary pushing stance on ethical sourcing and manufacturing methods. One of very few brands to introduce vegan-friendly, organic and upcycled materials such as the B-Mesh fabric into their mix, Veja are a forward-thinking brand dedicated to change and to restructuring the status quo of the contemporary clothing industry.
