Description
Veja's Alveomesh is a technical fabric made out exclusively of recycled polyester. It brings breathability, flexibility, and lightness to the shoe.
Coming from Jacareí São Paulo, this suede is a vegan synthetic textile alternative to animal-produced suede. It is a nonwoven fabric made of microfibers that are needle-punched together and impregnated with P.U. resin. This solvent-free process is less toxic than those used to produce classic synthetic suedes.
