Small Esplar Chromefree Leather Kids Sneakers

The ESPLAR model, named after the Brazilian NGO VEJA has been supporting since 2005, helps promote organic farming and family agriculture in the Nordeste region of Brazil.

Crafted from ChromeFree leather sourced from farms in southern Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul), the sneakers go through an innovative tanning process that avoids the use of chromium, heavy metals, and hazardous acids. This simplified method reduces chemical and energy consumption, cutting water use by around 40% and salt by 80%. Post-tanning, the water is fully recyclable.
