The Unstoppable Thread of Vegan Shoe Coveting

I picked these up at Ross in Long Beach when I was down there for 13.99! They are listed as $39 on their website and I would have easily pasid $60 in Canada for them. Super Stoked!!!

Those are rad, I would buy them if they had a black heel.

I'm glad to see the Melissa love. I just ordered these:

I am not a big shoe-lover but I had a look at Zellers (Canada) on the weekend and saw a few pairs of nice looking shoes and boots from "man-made materials". Does this mean it is likely they are vegan? One pair of boots was really nice.

Zellers has introduced some nicer, designer products - still cheap and somewhat cheap looking but serviceable for work. I rarely walk anywhere in my work shoes since I wear sneakers or big winter boots on the way and change when I arrive.

Most likely, yes. Some companies use glue that can contains animal products, if you want to be 100%, email them. :)

so i got these shoes from Delia's (i had a credit that needed using). mine are a bit different as they are a brown fabric, not cute PU like these.
my main issue with these are that the opening/leg of them are pinched looking so i feel like they look weird on me. pinched because of the cardboard things they put in the shoe.
is there anyway to get the crimped look out the boots?

p.s. this pair is on Zappos

I really like these Cri de Coeur ones. I need to become a millionaire or something.

I love the iron fist sequined skull shoes. I have the zombie ones and another pair with pink skulls. They are not the most comfortable shoes ever so I am worried about buying another pair.

I don't know if these are vegan or not

If not, someone should make it so!

^ beautiful but those are sitting shoes! I doubt they are durable enough to walk to the car in.

Veglicious · **Posted:** Thu Nov 11, 2010 4:20 am

Yeah the heel looks pretty scary actually but I love the idea of them.

I desperately want these rain boots.

I need some boots, maybe deciding between some of these?

What size are you? They are on sale for $175 Aussie dollars and shipping is just from Sydney so not that much. Still expensive but a good price for well-made boots that will keep multiple years. Only thing is they just have 36 and 37 left, too small for me!

Edit: and look up their facebook site to see if they have a discount code, when I ordered I got another 15 percent off using the code FACEBOOK.

I'm not sure if I actually want these or just love the color.
