Hey, I am new to these boards, so bear with me if I am posting wrong etc. :D

I am vegan, have been for about 6 months, veggie for almost 4 years, but that is besides the point really I guess. ..Point being, I am finding really really hard to find vegan shoes, that arent leather. I know that sounds stupid, I mean, I know there are other shoes out there, but I can't seem to find them. I am okay getting trainers, they are easy, but for tidy *going out* shoes, all I have is a pair of epspadrilles, and its coming up to winter, and they so totally are not suitable, especially when it rains. Does anyone know of anywhere that I can get non-leather shoes, be it on the net or in a chain of stores, cause my mum is going crazy with me as I have nothing to wear o my feet :S Help much apprieciated:D

Where do you live, roughly? That will be a huge factor in any advice people have.

I live in Ontario, but on a recent trip to new york state I discovered loads of really nice, vegan leather-look shoes. One of my favorite brands is MUDD. Do a google search. They have many leather-look shoes, and are available in American department stores.

try:

mooshoes.com

vegetarianshoes.com

zappos.com (on the bottom right hand corner they have a "vegetarian shoe" option)

I am wearing the Crocs clogs (without the holes) successfully with socks and my feet were warm--Crocs are great! The ones without holes are much warmer than the hole-y ones.

Zappos has the biggest selection.

I also use Pangea (veganstore.com) for many vegan needs, and that includes shoes.

troub recommends Earth Vegan brand.

Worth every penny.



i got mine at wholefoods. i just cant buy things like shoes online - i need to try stuff on first.

Congrats for being veggie for so long! I have also been vegan for 6 months. :)

I had the same problem with finding vegan shoes.. I recently bought a pair of sneakers from Payless. They great thing is they have stores, and you can buy online, too. And you can't beat the prices!

Earth shoes rock! We sell them at the store I work at, and I am waiting for my pair of black hippies to be sent! troub, what kind do you have?

Try a Payless ShoeSource if it's near you.

Earth Vegan-Different, like you

I like that

troub, what kind do you have?

I really like the incline insole. I have minorly bad posture and it helps a little.
Plus the shoes are just sexy.
Listed at $119 at earthvegan.us - payed $110 at wholefoods.
But like I said - worth every penny

$100 for a pair of shoes...whoa. My Payless kicks cost $20, and they're awesome!

Another cool place to check out for non-leather shoes is AlternativeOutfitters.com. They have a pretty nice selection of moderately-priced shoes.

ive worn $20 payless shoes since high school.

Believe me, you can tell the difference lol.
Worth every penny. The posture correcting 3.5% incline ergonomic form fitting insoles alone are worth it.

I just buy cheap synthetic shoes - not only are they non leather, but they save money lol. Actually this is basically my downfall as a vegetarian. I have so much trouble passing up shoes that i have fallen in love with when i realise they are leather. I do, but i bought leather shoes for my semi formal without even realising, I felt bad but i kept them...
