Veja x Rick Owens Runner Shoes in Full Black. An all-black collaboration designed in partnership with Paris-based designer Rick Owens, these redesigned Veja runners arrive as part of the brand’s latest SS21 release. Featuring breathable and well-ventilated uppers crafted from the brand’s exclusive V-Knit fabric made from 100% recycled polyester obtained from post-consumer recycled plastic bottles, these low-collared L-Foam latex cushioned sneakers are designed to tackle any given terrain with ease. An eco-minded midsole crafted from a blend of 46% sugar cane, 8% banana-oil and other synthetic materials complements the recycled Amazonian rubber outsole for added all-surface functionality, whilst the rib-knit collared trim, TPU panels and perforated detailings combine to provide a comfortable and reliable all-season wear. A recessed and staggered 9-eyelet lacing system secures the shape-retaining tongue across the natural arch of the foot, whilst the practical ‘Veja’ and double-striped pull-loop tabs across the rear pair well with the side-wall Pebax RNew tonal V-logo decals as a manner of remaining true to aesthetic tradition.
Pairing Veja’s passion for innovative advancement with internationally-renowned designer Rick Owens’ iconic aesthetic, these sustainably-sourced Veja Runners are designed to pair fashionable function with performative purpose. Refined and luxe-like in their appeal, these everyday sneakers offer an eco-minded advancement on an age-old classic silhouette.
