VejaMarlin - Running shoes - Men's

The Marlin are running shoes for men from the brand Veja, the famous brand of ecological shoes. Designed to meet the expectations of demanding runners, they are particularly suitable for runners seeking performance. As light as they are comfortable, the Marlin are versatile running shoes for men with a minimalist and sophisticated construction. The L-Foam inserts at the forefoot and heel allow shock absorption during running for increasingly effective cushioning. The fine knit upper gives the Marlin excellent breathability, effectively wicking away moisture during effort. Ideal for your urban running or mountain outings, they feature a multi-directional flexible grooved outsole that enhances your footwork and provides a more natural stride. Additionally, the construction of the tongue of the shoe adjusts perfectly to your foot for optimal comfort. Composed of 62% bio-sourced and recycled products, the Marlin are made in Brazil, close to the raw materials, and in a factory that respects workers' rights.

T.P.U (Thermo Plastic Polyurethane): a heat-bonded film on the sneaker that provides additional reinforcement without seams, while being very lightweight.

Pebax Rnew: a 100% bio-sourced material used as a reinforced structure of the sneaker. It ensures foot support and thus runner safety.

Amazonian rubber: each Veja sole is composed of 20 to 30% rubber from the Amazon rainforest. The seringueiros (rubber tappers) are paid according to fair trade principles. The use of this Amazonian rubber increases the economic value of the forest and protects it from deforestation.

L-Foam: technology developed for Veja running shoes. Composed of 50% natural latex and 50% synthetic latex, this cushioning insert provides comfort and protection against vibrations.
