Vegan Shoes: 5 Pairs You'll Want To Wear From Winter To Spring

It's not just leather vegans need to avoid.

It’s not just leather and suede you have to look out for, but also the glue which holds the shoe together as many manufacturers use animal-derived adhesives.  

A key way to identify a genuine vegan style choice, is to check for the Vegan Society Trademark
