As you are ordering online, it’s a good idea to visit a shoe shop (in the afternoon when your feet are ‘their proper size’ and get your feet measured properly) to avoid the hassle of returns. Obviously don’t wear footwear outside, until you are sure they fit properly.
This brand was founded by a couple to help barnyard friends (the name NAE stands for ‘no animals exploited’). Each pair is designed to last years, using eco materials like cork (no trees chopped town) and vegan fruit leathers (waste from the apple and pineapple industries).
The main material is Microfiber, a breathable vegan leather (these shoes are not plastic!) Buy two pairs to wear on alternate days, to let shoes dry out in between. They are easy to clean with a damp cloth.
Also has a Preloved (discount) range
When you visit, check out the present Preloved range. This works by people sending them back old shoes (if not good enough to sell they go to charities, but if only a few scratches, they go on sale here for people on a budget.
You can get some real bargains here. The average price of a good pair of vegan shoes is around 100 Euros, but the ones on this page are around the 20 to 30 Euros mark.
Why choose vegan footwear?
Most footwear is not a by-product of the meat industry. So even if not vegan or vegetarian, it’s good for a kinder world to avoid footwear made in countries with few animal welfare laws.
You can donate old good condition shoes to local charity shops (avoid supporting ones that test on animals). Most councils have recycling banks for used shoes and boots.
