The name “Vellies” actually comes from the Afrikaans word “vel”, which means “skin.” The word was eventually changed to veld, which is the local word for field. The result was the traditional Veldskoen. Today, a lot of high-end fashion labels have adapted the style and use the same leather for their shoes. But where do Vellies shoes come from? The company’s history is fascinating.
The shoes have been made in the same workshop since 1938, and the company only produces certain styles when demand is high. In addition to this, the company has committed to sustainable production practices in Africa and James works with the sources to ensure that their materials are environmentally friendly and of the highest quality. For example, the brand uses by-products from the edible food industry, including skins from Kudu (a wild antelope that is subjected to government mandated culling). Brother Vellies also uses skins from other animals, including Nile Perch, Rabbit, and Springbok.
A common style of vellies is the veldskoen, which is a traditional South African shoe. It is an everyday shoe that can be worn in both formal and casual settings, depending on the style. The company’s Legion Vellies are made from soft suede leather and have a polyurethane outsole. The shoes can be worn with any outfit, from jeans to skirts. This versatile style is made for every occasion.
Brothers Vellies shoes are produced in the same workshop where velskoene have been produced since 1938. The company works with artisans in the region to ensure that their products are produced using age-old techniques. The result is a high-end shoe that is also sustainable. The brand sources its raw materials ethically, using by-products from the edible food industry. These include the skins of Kudu, a species in South Africa, as well as Nile Perch, Rabbit, and Springbok.
The company specializes in leather-soled leather-based shoes, which are known as veldskoene in Afrikaans. They are made of vegetable-tanned leather with a rubber sole. The name is derived from the Afrikaans veldskoene (skin), which is a combination of veld (“skin”) and veld (“field”). The brand also uses the skins of animals in their cooking and other products.
The company also works with artisans in South Africa and Namibia to bring traditional African footwear to the world. The company also works with these artisans to preserve the culture and the ethos of the native people. The brand’s mission is to give back to the world by promoting ethically produced goods. The philosophy behind this ethos is not only a matter of style, but also of sustainability. In fact, the production of Vellies’ shoes is a way of life and a cultural heritage.
The company’s mission is to create and market African footwear. The company is committed to sustainable practices in both countries and works with artisans in those countries to ensure the quality of its shoes. Its mission is to be a part of the African culture, which is reflected in the design of the Brother Vellies shoe. It is a ‘way of life’. It’s an expression of South Africa, with an African soul.
The company’s mission is to introduce authentic African footwear to the world. The company aims to create artisanal jobs in Africa and promote sustainable practices. Their shoes are made by local African artisans in South Africa, Kenya and Namibia. They preserve the spirit and the culture of their ancestral counterparts and create a unique fashion statement. They are also an excellent investment for South Africa’s diverse culture. They are a great way to show off your individual style and support local artisans.
Founded in 1963, the brand’s name is a South African footwear line with a modern twist. Its styles and materials are based on the traditions of African tribes and cultures. The brand’s sandals are crafted from Kudu leather, which is sourced sustainably. Its designs often incorporate elements of the country’s vibrant culture and incorporate the colors of their ancestors. Its range of styles is as diverse as the people wearing them.
In addition to their popular sandals, the brand also offers a range of unique footwear. The veldskoen, or vulcanized shoes, are handcrafted by a team of artisans in South Africa. The leather is made from natural rubber and is durable and comfortable. A pair of vellies may cost as little as 550 rand, while a more expensive one could cost up to 1,000 rand. However, they are still affordable for those on a budget.
