7 Vegan Shoe Designs You’ll Love
With big brands like Reebok and Stella McCartney launching vegan footwear at the moment, it's time to step up your ethical shoe game

1. Vegan Austin Flat, £58, freepeople.com
Available in sizes 6-10 (including half sizes), this chic design comes in seven earthy shades which are perfect as autumn approaches. Editor Holly suggests wearing them with a pair of frayed hem jeans.

2. Sneak V Natural Cork, £110, po-zu.com
These lace-up vegan trainers feature natural cork, perforated with the Po-Zu butterfly logo detail. A grown-up and ethical take on the current sneaker trend.

3. Acacia Koala, £98, mattandnat.com
A stylish espadrille wedge with an open-toe design and adjustable back-strap, these are the best accessory for wide-hemmed trousers we’ve seen all season.

4. Georgina, £165, bboheme.com
Classic brogues never go out of style, and we love the orange trim on these beauties. Made with breathable fabric and an insole enhanced for comfort, they're great for any occasion.

5. Leah B Mustard Suede Block Heel Vegan Sandals, £135, beyond-skin.com
Fun and retro; these dainty sandals come in mustard faux suede with a white faux leather trim. Dress them up with sophisticated evening wear, or pair with jeans for a casual look.

6. Vegan Silver Line Boot, £78, freepeople.com
We adore the textured vegan leather and subtle studded detail of these ankle boots. Pictured here in black, they are also available in soft taupe.

7. Logger Boot, £79.95, vegetarian-shoes.co.uk
When the weather is particularly British, these boots will be your seasonal saviour. Especially if we get another bout of snow!
