O.T. Leather (Organic Traced) comes from 100% certified organic farms in Uruguay, a country known for its livestock farming culture and high-quality leather. This is the softest and thinnest leather. It is mechanically treated to gain suppleness and finesse, then tanned in Brazil using few dyes than conventional leather. VEJA uses dyes that comply with regulations and ensures responsible water use during the tanning process.
Using a washing machine is strongly discouraged to prevent altering the properties of the materials. Waterproof your shoes using a product appropriate for the material. Repeat every 3 to 6 months. Maintain the smooth leather of your shoes with a damp cloth and a specific spray product. Finish by applying a protective balm. Repeat every 3 months, or as needed based on the condition of your shoes. Let dry in open air, away from heat sources (such as sunlight or radiators), to prevent any discolouration.
