There’s something to be said for a simple, eye-catching sneaker. It’s that sort of sentiment that helped make chucks, purcells and nylites so popular and Veja is using a similar model for their Domingos – with a twist. It all starts with patchwork uppers based on one primary shade of colors. Then Veja throws in some accent patches and their logo, heel cap and laces in a secondary accent color. But what really sets these sneakers apart from all the others are the materials. Every shoe that’s part of the Veja project is based on three key principles: environmentally friendly materials, cotton and fair trade rubber and products manufactured with dignity. That ends with Organic cotton from northeastern Brazil, Amazon wild rubber and leather tanned acacia getting combined into a pair of sneakers that’s different, but feels oddly familiar. They’re peace of mind for your feet.
