Rio Branco Sneakers

Veja is a French footwear and accessories brand founded in 2005 by Sébastien Kopp and François Morillion. ‘Veja’, as a Portuguese-Brazilian word meaning ‘to look’, gives the idea "to look beyond the sneakers and look how they are made". Veja is socially and environmentally conscious. The concept behind each pair of Veja is "standing up with one foot in design and the other in social responsibility". With its signature 'V' logo, the sneakers are crafted with fairly traded materials including natural rubber from Seringueiro communities in the Amazon rainforest, sources that save on water, energy and harmful emissions. The ethical sneakers-maker brings a positive impact to the industry and attracts Hollywood celebrities like Emma Watson, Emily Ratajkowski, Katie Holmes as well as Megan Markle to support the brand.
