there are all these beautiful shoes on ebay that I want!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
If you're a vegan, you probably won't want to on principle!. (Leather comes off of dead cows!.)

That being said, if you're buying something used, you aren't contributing to or supporting the industry (someone else already did!.!.!. the original retailer isn't getting a cent of the resale money)!.

I'd say that this is something that you need to answer for yourself!. You aren't directly supporting the industry when you buy used, but you are still benefiting from it!. You might also keep in mind the message that some people will get from your purchase: that you care more about fashion than animals!. I don't necessarily think this is true, but most people won't know that your shoes are vintage/pre-owned, etc!.

Think about why you're vegan and you'll have your answer!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Leather is leather, whether it's vintage or not!.
If you really want the shoes, go ahead, but just think it through first!. Don't make a spur of the moment decision because you may regret it later!. Well good luck with whatever you decide to do :)

PS!. Natalie Portman has an AWSOME line of vegan shoes!. If you're looking for cool/pretty shoes that are vegan, that is!. You can order them online :DWww@FoodAQ@Com

No!.
Try Natalie Portman's line or Mooshoes!.comWww@FoodAQ@Com

An animal died for those shoes!. So if you think death is a fair price to pay for some fancy shoes, go for it!.


There is such a think as faux leather!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
