An Amazing Resource For Vegan Boots

November 10th, 2010

Hello friends,

I’ve found another great source for vegan shoes that I wanted to share with all of you: Wantedshoes.com

This site has a huge selection of shoes. Their boots section is especially fruitful. Not all of their shoes are totally vegan but every shoe I was interested in and clicked on, except one, was. This is great news. I’d say this site is up there with Forever21.com as the site with the best selection of vegan shoes on the web.

One note. Ultimately it would be ideal to buy shoes from totally vegan companies made for vegans and vegetarians. That way none of our money would support the leather shoe industry. However, the selection at totally vegan companies is so lacking and the prices can be so high that that’s not always an option. I think just buying shoes made with all non leather materials makes a statement, and can make you feel good about your lifestyle and choices. What do you think though? Is it ok to buy what I call “unintentionally vegan” shoes– shoes that are made with non leather materials simply because they are cheap, and not necessarily because they are made with animals in mind? I would love to know your opinion in the comment section.

Well, in the meantime, here are some really cool shoes from Wanted, but they have a huge selection so check it out yourself, because I’m sure they have something that’s more your style.

I’ve Found a New, Amazing Source for Vegan Shoes

November 7th, 2010

Totally vegan Topstitched Short Boots from Forever21.com
$26.80

I had to blog, because I have literally stumbled upon the jackpot for non leather shoes. Although I think it would always be ideal to by shoes from a totally vegan shoe company, Forever 21 has literally THE best selection of “unintentionally vegan” shoes. The shoes at Forever 21 seem better designed and much cooler than the similarly trendy shoes at Lulu’s.com, another great resource for vegan shoes. Forever 21 is also probably the cheapest place to buy vegan shoes– $26.99 for these boots, and no shoe I saw on their site was over $40! That’s incredible. I will spotlight and link to a few more gems:

Totally vegan Lace Up Flat Boots
$24.80

Totally vegan topstitch Cowgirl Boots
$32.80

Totally vegan Leatherette Ankle Booties
$29.80

And so many more! There are cowboy boots, faux suede over the knee boots, oxfords, ballet flats, and leopard print items. Best of all, only one item I checked was leather while the rest were all made of 100% of man made materials. Tomorrow I will post some of their dressier shoes, but feel free to go now to the site and look for yourself. I will most definitely be adding Forever21 to my Vegan Shoe Shopping Guide at the top of the site.
