My choice Vegan with inspiring words. |
What do you wear on your feet? Is it hide from an animal? Glue from an animal? Rubber that will never decompose? I have all of those but I have found some earth/animal friendly vegan shoes from Toms. Toms is starting to gain interest because they give a pair of shoes for every pair of shoes purchased. They are a bit more pricey but you have to think of it like a donation as well. In fact, who needs 10, 20, 200 pairs of shoes? Really. Luckily for me I cannot walk in high heels and I refuse to have back pain for fashion purposes. Therefore, I have two pairs of running shoes, a pair of hiking shoes, a pair of hiking boots, rubber rain boots (also great for feeding chickens), flip flops etc. I am trying to pare down like the gal from Zero Waste Home. She has six pairs. Period. My new theory is that with all the money I save from not buying various shoes I can put more money into the few that I do purchase. They aren't the pretties pair of shoes I have ever seen and I am not sure how comfy they are but I think I will give them a try. I saw a kid with a pair of Toms shoes on yesterday and they looked nice and I liked the fact that some other kids who needed a pair of shoes finally had a pair!
