VEJA have launched their advanced running shoe Condor 3 .
The Condor 3 combines technology, research and development, and bio-based materials to meet the needs of runners.
Mechanical and biomechanical tests were carried out for the Condor 3, with VEJA testing the shoe in the laboratory for damping charge, responsiveness and durability and had runners try it out.
The Condor 3 won the 2023 Award at ISPO, the world's most important trade fair for outdoor and sports.
“Making sustainable running shoes is always about finding a balance between environmental responsibility and performance.
With the Condor 3, VEJA is making new advances in research and development and bio-based materials to create a running shoe that meets the needs of an environmentally conscious runner, from beginners to long-distance runners.”

The outsole of the shoe is equipped with a continuous L-foam cushion, which provides high shock absorption. It dampens vibrations and makes the shoe as comfortable as possible.
Thanks to its large volume and wide shape, the sole offers a high level of comfort even during long runs.
The shoe's engineered mesh, T.P.U. panels and heel secure the foot while providing breathability.
The Condor 3 weighs 287 grams and is therefore very lightweight using environmentally friendly materials.
Lighter laces and a thin tongue reduce friction points compared to the previous model.
Even after long distances and many running sessions, the Condor 3 proves its durability by maintaining shape and cushioning.
The VEJA Condor 3 is available at HHV.
