Are there any good vegetarian shoes?!


Question:

Are there any good vegetarian shoes?

I am sick of buying shoes which fall apart, I just can't afford it. Does anyone know of anywhere I can buy shoes which don't contain animal products, but actually don't fall apart within a few months?


Answers:
Vans-Geoff Rowley's signature shoes only(all of his shoes are synthetic
Fallen-"Chief" Jamie thomas' Signature shoe
DVS-Berra 4's(Steve Berra's Signature shoe)

I skateboard in these shoes and they last as long as a normal leather or suede shoe does.And skateboarding in them causes alot of abuse to the shoes,so if you just walk around in them they should last a long time.You can find them at most Vans stores,mall skateshops like Zumiez or Mainland.Online buy them at activemailorder.com

The cheapest shoes would be Rowley Slims if you can find them(they're about thirty dollars),try ebay.

here they are at active

trust me they're great shoes,I only buy Rowleys,they're comfortable,grippy,light,and look sick.

I suppose Jimmy Nails crocodile shoes are out of the question

Crocs are made of soy, I believe.

Never tried eating any so I wouldn't know!

The only ones I can think of are alpargatas. They are coir soled canvas shoes sold everywhere in Argentina.

That's the trouble with trying to be different. It cost a lot. Perhaps you should sell your car, grow your own vegies, dig a well and never leave your home. Shoes will be completely unnecessary.

why do you want to eat your shoes?

Wellington Boots. 100% natural rubber (or a synthetic equivalent)!!

I don't eat my shoes, so it's never bothered me. Some of the cheaper shoes aren't made of leather - they're plastic, but they make my feet sweat AND I can't guarantee that the glue wasn't made from your favourite pony!

Yes, I buy them from Vegetarian Shoes in Brighton, UK.

The ones I've bought have not fallen apart, and the amount of insults i get for wearing leather means they must look ok !

Not to be confused with shoes that are non-leather because they are cheap - eg plastic ones. These are make from breathable materials that are flexible and last.

Addidas makes hemp shoes.

I buy all my shoes from http://www.ethicalwares.com and have found them hard wearing and very good value. They're totally vegan and they also sell fair trade goods on their site as well as vegan accessories like belts, bags etc. They are based in Wales and deliver all over the UK. I'd recommend them and I wear them all the time.

Covent Garden, Neal street, "The Natural Shoe Shop".

converses
red ones are soo cool

Pepe had mine for years
not very tasty though.

I like the Macbeth ones. Give those a try.

Hmm... I have a pair of Italian made boots from Ethical wares. Unlike many they don't get too sweaty and I have walked several hundred miles in them in most weather. While they are not perfect I am pretty happy with them.

Alternatively, Tchibo's winter boots are all man made (though I don't know if there's anything about them that means they are not vegan) and only £17.50!

there is a very good shop in bond street Brighton in the north lanes there is also a number of other shops in this very popular area selling the kind of things i feel sure you would like

I didn't know shoes could eat

New Balance shoes don't used the animal based glue. They are recommended by the Vegan Society. Depends on what shoes you want.
