Vegan Shoes

We know it can be tough finding awesome looking vegan shoes, and you can spend hours researching brands, and materials. It can be difficult to find vegan boots and shoes with the same qualities as traditional leather footwear; smart and long lasting. But don't despair, certain brands produce hardy, high quality and stylish footwear from vegan leathers made from cork, kelp and other synthetic materials.

If you want to keep your footwear collection cruelty-free, Dr Martens Vegan also offers an alternative shoes vegan range so you can enjoy the same awesome styles made from alternative materials. New Rock Vegan also has its own range of shoes made entirely from synthetic materials!
