Every Little Bit Helps
Every little bit helps; especially when it comes to sustainability for the world we live in. Making changes to the way we do things; even small ones; can add up to a big impact. This is the approach we took with the Circle Vee SE Shoes.
Vans looked at every little bit that goes into making a shoe and made adjustments-from the one-piece knitted natural upper to the sculpted for all-day comfort VR3Cush™ biofoam drop-in midsole and the full-length VR3Waffle™ rubber outsole. We even developed construction methods to reduce glues and excess material.
Our team has set ambitious sustainability goals. Big or small; all of our efforts add up to positive change. To earn the VR3 Checkerboard globe logo; at least 30% of the product must be made up of one or a combination of recycled; renewable; and/or regenerative materials.
· The footbed provides ultimate all-day comfort and support with a molded heel cup and arch shape.
· ECOWAFFLE™ OUTSOLE: All of the rubber used to make this outsole (60% of the compound) is regeneratively grown natural rubber sourced from farms utilising agricultural practices that are intended to promote biodiversity; enhance water cycles; improve soil health and/or sequester carbon. This natural rubber compound was developed and engineered to maintain the grip and durability Vans has been known for since ’66.
