Veganism has become more than just our diets, as we look to make more considered sartorial choices for our wardrobes, too.
Footwear is an easy place to start if you’re looking to transition to non animal-derived fabrics, because there’s now more choice than ever – meaning you don’t need to compromise on looking good.
To help, we’ve picked a range of vegan trainers so you can put your best, eco-friendly foot forward.
Rivalling the design of the Adidas x Alexander McQueen trainers, this chunky flat-form style will cost you a lot less, but doesn’t compromise in the style stakes. Everything down to the leather on the ankle is vegan.
Step out in style no matter what the weather – the vegan suede alternative is both breathable and water-resistant. These gorgeous kicks are eco-friendly, too, with packaging made from sustainable paper. Pop them on with black leggings and an oversized roll neck jumper dress.
Add a bit of va-va-voom to your wardrobe with this faux suede, leopard print pair from French brand Minuit Sur Terre. Keep your outfit simple and let your footwear do all the talking. Note: international shipping starts from £9, so be sure to factor that into your budgeting.
A sustainable approach runs throughout all Veja’s products – a brand which counts Meghan Markle as a fan – and this pair in particular is also made from 53% natural or recycled materials. We love the blush pink and burgundy colours, too.
This versatile black pair is a staple for any wardrobe, come summer or winter. Made in a durable canvas material, they’re long lasting and easy to style. Throw on with jeans and a chunky knit this winter.
Matt & Nat, launched in 1995, is an entirely vegan brand that has long been experimenting with sustainable and eco-friendly materials – such as nylon, rubber and cork. This simple flat lace up trainer is the perfect pair for your collection.
