Vegan footwear is free of any animal products and uses synthetic or recycled materials often combined with natural fabrics such as hemp, cotton, cork or recycled materials.

...and here I am, sitting here,
wishing I could afford a pair..
....*sigh!*.....oh, well, I guess
I'll just keep wearing my Birkenstocks.
But, I'm a Hippie, and it's the law;
I have to wear Birkenstocks!

Thanks, Mike!

Vegan shoes haven't exactly been haute couture so far, but they sure look comfy LOL, and knowing that they don't have any animal parts AND are green makes it worth it, I think. Thanks Michael.

Elgin, in Asian countries, they actually sell sandals made of used tires because they are cheap and uhm durable, and they make good buckets and flower pots too.
