How To Find Non-Leather Shoes, Etc.
Wear your own skin and let the animals wear theirs. But how?
Here’s how to find the vegan purses, briefcases, shoes, belts, wallets, gloves, jackets, and other non-leather goods:
a) Look for items that are “man-made materials,” “synthetic” or that are made from recycled rubber, recycled plastic, cotton, hemp or other plant fibers.
b) Shop at vegan stores:
- Vegan Essentials: http://www.veganessentials.com/
- Moo Shoes: http://www.mooshoes.com/
- Cosmo’s Vegan Shoppe: http://www.cosmosveganshoppe.com/
- Food Fight: http://store.foodfightgrocery.com/

c) Just try doing a search for “vegan” at regular retailers.

d) Get the scoop on vegan fashion from vegan fashionistas, such as:
- The Discerning Brute: http://www.thediscerningbrute.com/
- The Girlie Girl Army: http://girliegirlarmy.com/


I have also found a lot of nice 100% Man Made items @ Target and Kohl’s . Most recently a nice black “pleather” purse from a designer named Dana Buchman @ Kohl’s. Originally, it sold for around eighty dollars but I acquired it for sixteen dollars on sale!
Merrell has a slip on show with a hemp top. All vegan. Got mine at onlineshoes.com. Very comfortable shoe.
Thank you for this. It will help a lot.
