VEJA

VEJA's environmentally friendly sneakers have taken the fashion industry by storm ever since their inception in 2005. The French brand has paved the way for fair trade, sustainable footwear and has gained an impressive celebrity following thanks to their ethical ethos and stylish designs. The vision behind the brand: to create lasting shoes with excellent craftsmanship at an accessible price point.

Meaning “look” in Brazilian communities, VEJA symbolises ethical practices at the heart of the company. Working directly with their Brazilian producers and their families who sustainably source materials including organic cotton, rubber and leather, their emphasis on fair trade sourcing start at the manufacturing process. Their iconic mesh trainers are made with recycled plastic bottles and polyester. From the factory to the showroom, each step along the production is carefully considered, ultimately ending with the consumer who, in buying VEJA shoes, contributes to developing communities around the world.

But while upcycling and sustainability is the foundation of the design process, the brand doesn’t compromise on style. The classic ‘V’ logo adorned on each shoe has become synonymous with effortless, contemporary fashion. Now somewhat of a cult classic, the V10, Wata and V-12 Bastille sneakers have become iconic streetwear favourites. We love the simple yet chic designs that VEJA have mastered over the years and can’t wait to see what comes next. Discover our women's range for yourself at BrandAlley.
