The Origin

Adventure and movement are my oxygen: running in the mountains, cycling, climbing! Velocidade was born to inspire a healthy and happy lifestyle, give a taste for adventure and develop a love for nature while sharing it with friends.

The Collaborations

The Expeditions

How do we minimize the environmental impacts of our shipments?

Packaging is an essential part of protecting products during distribution. But there is a balance to be found. At Velocidade, we have chosen not to use plastic in our packages.

PACKAGING

For our shipments, we use cardboard shipping boxes, and we also collect as many boxes as possible from orders received at the workshop that we use for a new postal trip to you.

Our Commitments

How do we play our part in preserving the environment?

Atelier Velocidade

Speed ​​Workshop

As a brand committed to sustainable development and respect for the environment, Velocidade is a member of the 1% for the planet program.

Companies participating in the program donate 1% of their turnover to the organization's partner associations, which have an ecological commitment.

Longevity and Durability

How do we make our products last over time?

Atelier Velocidade

All our products are designed to last a long time, with a durable design that makes it easy to repair if necessary. Even the finest seams and friction points are reinforced, either by using double canvases or by multiple stitching.

The thought put into design and attention to the quality of manufacturing of our products allows them to last a very long time.

But we are not immune to a fall... That's why we also guarantee a repair service, just in case...
