Why Choose Vegan Summer Sandals?

Leather is usually not a by-product of the meat industry, and often made in the far east, where there are few animal welfare or human rights laws. The tanning process is also very polluting, and livestock farming is one of the main causes of greenhouse emissions.

Choosing vegan sandals is kinder to animals and the planet, and as long as you choose quality materials (not plastic or ‘pleather’) they feel more comfortable too!

Freerangers (handmade vegan sandals from Tyneside)

Freerangers has been around for years, employing artisans to make shoes by hand (each pair is even signed by the maker, and you can send them back for re-soling so they last years).

Also in styles for men,  you can also purchase on Etsy.

As these sandals are handmade, you can choose your own colour (black or 21 colours), from all the selected styles (most have shock-absorbing soles). These are not ‘high-fashion’, but super-comfy and often suit wider feet, so many older people are fans (some have ‘closed toes’ that are preferred by many).

Minuit sur Terre (stylish vegan French sandals)

Minuit Sur Terre (just search ‘sandals’ to bring up their summer footwear) is a super-stylish vegan footwear company from France. For every pair sold, 5 Euros are donated to a partner association to help animal welfare.

The founder is a (stylish) woman (she’s French!) who could not find clothes of ethics to match quality and fashion she wanted.

Sold in many styles and colours, these sandals add a hint of French flair to any summer outfit. They are designed in France, and made ethically in Portugal.
