A Sustainability-Conscious Way to Prepare for the Unexpected
Here, there, anywhere. Combining the UltraRange’s comfort and versatility features with Vans’ VR3 design guidelines, the UltraRange Neo VR3 lets you take on the unexpected moments of your day while making a sustainability-conscious choice along your journey.
VANS team has set ambitious sustainability goals. Big or small, all 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.
UPPER MATERIAL: Made with regenerative leather, sourced from farms implementing regenerative land management intended to promote biodiversity, enhance water cycles, improve soil health and sequester carbon, and 100% recycled PET textiles. Vans leather products support responsible manufacturing via the Leather Working Group.
FOOTBED: The new VR3Cush midsole is made using at least 50% biobased EVA foam partially derived from plant-based sources per the ASTM D6866-16 testing standard.
OUTSOLE: All of the rubber used to make this VR3Waffle outsole (60% of the compound) is regeneratively grown natural rubber sourced from farms utilizing 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 is known for (since 66).
