The suede is made from the underside of cowhide, which has been brushed to make it softer and more flexible. It comes from tanneries in southern Brazil and is tanned in Brazil in compliance with REACH standards. Special attention is paid to water consumption during the tanning process. The suede is also treated with water-repellent oils free of PFCs to protect the sneakers from light rain.
