I’m searching for boots similar to these but vegan for obvious reasons. I love boots but haven’t had them for years because I couldn’t find any cool-looking.

      Source on these claims? Leather production isn’t exactly easy on the environment, nor the health of (typically third-world country) workers involved in the process.

      Personally I’ve been wearing the same pair of synthetic leather boots to my job which has me walk ~20k steps a day for 5 years now, and the only part of the shoe showing signs of wear is the rubber sole, which I had to glue back on.

      Nobody said anything about the environment or it being better???

      OP is trying to find clothing that doesn’t involve animal exploitation

        How aren’t you exploiting animals when you’re destroying the literal environment they live in to cover up you weak fleshy human feet?

          Read the community sidebar, particularly the “as far as is possible and practicable” in “What is Veganism?”.

      I can’t believe how much people arguing with the premise of the question has ruined this thread.
