ChromeFree leather: The bovine ChromeFree leather is smooth and light. Coming from farms located in the south of Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul), it undergoes an innovative tanning process where no chrome, heavy metals or dangerous acids are involved. By simplifying the tanning process, the use of chemicals and energy is limited, the use of water is reduced by about 40% and the use of salt by 80%. After tanning, the water is recyclable.

Investing in reality is much more important than investing in the brand label itself. In translation, this means investing in high quality with an emphasis on sustainability, which Veja sneakers and clothing can be proud of.
