A sustainable way to prepare for the unexpected
Wherever you are. The UltraRange Neo VR3 lets you face the unexpected in your day with sustainability in mind.
The Vans team has set ambitious sustainability goals. Every effort, big or small, leads to positive change. To obtain the Checkerboard Globe logo, at least 30% of the product must be made of one or more recycled, renewable and/or remanufactured materials.
Product characteristics:
UPPER MATERIAL: made from leather products that support responsible manufacturing through the Leather Working Group (www.leatherworkingroup.com) and 100% recycled PET fabrics.
INSOLE: The new midsole is made of at least 50% bio-based EVA foam partially derived from plant sources according to ASTM D6866-16 testing standard.
SOLE: All of the rubber used to make the VR3Waffle™ sole (60% of the compound) is regeneratively grown natural rubber sourced from farms that use practices to promote biodiversity, improve water cycles as well as enhance soil health and/or soil carbon uptake. This natural rubber compound was developed and designed to maintain the grip and durability that Vans is famous for (since ’66).
