Done in a bold palette of mustard and black, these retro-looking sneakers are every bit as environmentally conscious as they are cool. The breathable mesh upper? One hundred percent recycled. The laces? Organic cotton. The sole? Made using sustainably harvested rubber from the Amazon rainforest. Note: This style runs small, so go one size up to get the perfect fit.
Upper: Alveomesh; Panels: Suede & leather; Midsole: Bio-based E.V.A.; Outsole: Amazonian rubber, silica mineral, synthetic rubber

Founded by childhood friends Sébastien Kopp and François-Ghislain Morillion, Veja produces everyday sneakers with strong sustainability cred. The brand sources Amazonian rubber directly from seringueiros (rubber tappers) for its soles, practices radical transparency by publishing everything from material costs to chemical safety test reports, and spends zero dollars on advertising, redirecting those funds to things like higher compensation for laborers. The designs range from classic to retro, all with their signature “V” emblazoned on the side.
