Made in Brazil
Suede is made from the lower part of cowhide, previously brushed to make it softer and more flexible. It comes from farms in southern Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul). It is tanned in Brazil, without the use of dangerous or prohibited chemicals. VEJA uses conventional dyes that comply with regulations. Particular attention is paid to the use of water during the tanning process. The suede is also coated with water-repellent oils without PFCs (chemical compounds) to protect the sneakers from light rain.
