VEJA x P.Andrade: A Collab Inspired by the Amazon Rainforest

French footwear brand VEJA has teamed up with Brazillian label P. Andrade to create their first ever footwear collaboration. The result? A colorful and eye-catching shoe that pays homage to the beauty of the Amazon rainforest.

Modeled After VEJA’s Fitz Roy Hiking Shoe

The collaborative offering takes inspiration from VEJA’s popular Fitz Roy hiking shoe, known for its durability and functionality. But this time, it’s been given a unique twist with P. Andrade’s signature collage-like pattern.

A Multicolor Appearance Reminiscent of Rock Structures

The shoe’s upper is adorned with a vibrant and eclectic mix of colors, reminiscent of the diverse and striking rock structures found in the Amazon rainforest. A splash of muted blue adds a touch of contrast to the earthy tones, creating a truly eye-catching design.

Environmentally Conscious Design

In line with both brands’ commitment to sustainability, the collaborative shoe features a midsole made from 52% sugarcane and 3% Amazonian rubber. The outsole is also crafted from 31% Amazonian rubber, providing both durability and protection for rugged terrains.

Release Dates and Where to Buy

The VEJA x P.Andrade collaboration will be released in two stages. The P. Andrade version will be available on October 4, while the VEJA version will be released on October 24. Both shoes can be purchased from their respective brands’ websites. Don’t miss out on this unique and environmentally conscious collaboration!
