Just as ordering vegan food is simplest at a fully vegan restaurant, shopping for vegan shoes is easiest when buying from 100% vegan brands. Sure, you can check labels at department or big-box stores—ensuring leather, suede, fur, wool, silk, exotic skins, and other animal-derived materials aren’t listed—or you can choose any pair of shoes from these vegan brands:
