I've been thinking about getting the car tyre mule and cabin boot from Vegetarian Shoes, but I'd really like to hear reviews on them before I shell out the money. Does anyone have a pair by this company? Are they high quality, comfortable & worth the price?

I had a pair of veg. shoes boots awhile ago. I had no problem with the quality. I remember that they ran big. As far as comfort goes, I guess they were as comfortable as boots can be. That's all I got sorry.

I just got a pair of Converse John Lennon Peace sneakers, they say 'Peace' in various languages, pretty neat.

I'd be interested in the answer to that too Rowan. It seems like shoes not made of animals should be cheaper, at least from an ethical stand point at the very least. Like "hey, good for you! cheaper shoes for you for being so good!"

Anyone have moo shoes?

i own a pair of Vegetarian Shoes, which i wear on a daily basis. i think they're called "trainer". cool design and quite comfortable. i've had them for about 7 or 8 months now and they're still in great condition, so they are durable. i know their shoes are pricey, but i personally feel they are worth it.

Moo Shoes is a shoe store, not a brand.

I have a pair of their Doc Martens (they no longer carry these but they have their own models that are very similar) They are much more comfortable than non-breathable plastic boot but much less comfortable than canvas sneakers. The soles don't flex the way the soles on sneakers flex. But they are the same as the soles often found on leather shoes. They don't conform to your feet the way leather does, or seem to stretch at tight spots, the way leather might, so I recommend getting a 1/2 size or a full size larger than you would get if you were getting leather, otherwise they may abrade your skin as you walk. Use latex foam or vinyl foam spacers if they are a bit too big. Also, I strongly recommend getting the vegetan micro ones, rather than the plain vegetan ones. They last longer, they breathe better, they are more flexible. I had a pair of the plain vegetan boots (old Timbercats with plain vegetan uppers) and I didn't like them as much. They had harder soles too. I recommend the "air" soles.

IMO fantastic quality, very happy with my men's casual shoe, ordered over a year ago from Moo Shoes.

i want to get the diesel look alike from moo shoes...

but i don't think i'll get them in time for school so i guess i'll wear my old worn out diesels till then.

my school has a uniform by the way. regular diesels were always in uniform if they were solid black or brown so these fake diesels should be too lol.
