These Veja Campo have an upper made from chrome-free tanned leather. This leather is smooth and lightweight. It comes from farms in southern Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul) and goes through an innovative tanning process that does not involve chrome, heavy metals or dangerous acids. By simplifying the tanning process, the use of chemicals and energy is limited, water consumption is reduced by about 40% and the use of salt by 80%. After tanning, the water is reusable. The V logo on the side is made of rubber and rice waste (22 %). The inner lining is made of 1005 recycled polyester tech fabric. The vulcanised outsole is made from rice waste (23%), Amazon rubber (19% ), and recycled rubber (12%). These Veja sneakers are made in Brazil, in the Porto Alegre region.
