The Very Best Vegan Boots for Everyone on Your List
From apple leather to cozy faux-fur, we’ve rounded up all of the cruelty-free, fashionable boots from the 2021 Species Unite Buy Better gift guide so that you don’t have to.
With more than a billion cows, pigs, goats, sheep, alligators, ostriches, kangaroos, and even dogs and cats cruelly slaughtered for their skins every year, it’s so important to stand against this with our wallets and our fashion choices - what we think, wear, and eat matters.
However, we know how hard it can be to shop ethically, especially when it comes to boots. That’s why the team at Species Unite has created a selection of our favorite vegan boots, helping to empower you to choose fashionable, ethical shoes, free from leather, fur, wool, and any other product that causes harm to animals.
All of the boots selected here are a part of our 2021 BUY BETTER gift guide - a guide to help you find special gifts for anyone in your life: the artist, the foodie, the adventurer, and more! But that doesn’t mean you can’t refresh your own shoe cupboard this winter…
