It\u2019s Fall, so it\u2019s time for new vegan shoes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New tough and durable plant-based materials made from apple peels, mushrooms, coffee grounds, and recycled plastic mean you can stride into fall with the confidence that our fellow animals are not suffering with every step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The market for vegan shoes is growing briskly<\/a>, with vegan companies as well as vegan shoes from mainstream brands<\/a> creating functional and cute animal-friendly options. There is so much choice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is important because footwear can be infused with cruelty: shoes can be made from skins (aka \u201cleather\u201d) taken from the bodies of cows and other animals who spent their lives in ghastly conditions. They can also include fibers like wool stolen from sheep, a process that leaves the sensitive and social animals bruised and bleeding. None of these animals enjoy or consent to this treatment; they\u2019d much rather be hanging out with their friends eating grass. Happy sheep wag their tails like dogs, and cows and bulls communicate with one another using subtle facial expressions, just like humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So it\u2019s great news that there are so many fantastic new vegan shoes out there that, for this roundup, we\u2019re only looking at shoes from vegan companies. Check them out and step into the season with compassion and fresh style!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brands With New Vegan Shoes Right Now:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

nae<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Made from innovative materials derived from apple peels, cork, and organic cotton, nae\u2019s new vegan shoes for fall include the KELLA<\/a> women\u2019s boot. An ankle-length nod to cowboy boots, these will have you kicking your way into fall — without cruelty, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Men can enjoy similarly chunky vegan boots from nae, but why not branch out with the LORE<\/a> vegan Derby. You\u2019ll be perfectly shod for an evening at the club, waiting for Sherlock Holmes to arrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They\u2019re not new, but you should also know about nae\u2019s collaboration with PETA. The PETA Black Collab Desert Boot<\/a> is not just eminently ethical: it\u2019s also organic, biodegradable, and made in Portugal under fair work conditions. It\u2019s a wonder they leave any footprints at all\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dapper<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

BHAVA<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Designed in New York by Francisca Paneda and handmade in Spain from Italian vegan leather, Bhava sets the standard for fashionable comfort in vegan women\u2019s shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We love the clean lines, versatility, and classic look of Bhava\u2019s Athena 2-in-1 Heel<\/a>. The center T-strap is removable for different looks, and the all-natural cork insole provides shock absorption and arch support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bhava\u2019s Ballet Flat<\/a> is another new vegan shoe you need to check out. With its traditional Mary Jane profile, rubber sole, and cork insole, you will find yourself wearing this shoe again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Black<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ahimsa<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A Brazilian company founded in 2013, Ahimsa uses polyurethane vegan leather to create a wide range of footwear for women and men. Deeply committed to compassionate sustainability, in 2014, Ahimsa built the first-ever totally vegan shoe factory on Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, their unisex Everyday Boot<\/a> is ideal for fall with its durability and classic look. Best of all, the high-tech materials make this boot less than half the weight of similar boots made from animal tissues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or try Ahimsa\u2019s Everyday Derby<\/a> for an appealing chunky look that can take you anywhere\u2014work, home, shopping, dining out, or protesting injustice and cruelty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Ahimsa<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Stella McCartney<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A vegan fashion OG, Stella McCartney\u2019s footwear is made from bio-futuristic materials like leathers from apples, grapes, fungal mycelia, and pineapples. This year, her new vegan shoes include spectacularly glittery Limited Edition Elyse Monochrome Sequin Platforms<\/a>\u2014a whimsical and compelling take on her familiar saw-toothed sole and angular square toe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or maybe this fall you\u2019re finally going to step into a pair of glossy vegan patent leather stiletto boots<\/a>. Handcrafted in Italy and featuring a pointed square toe, these boots will get you noticed anywhere.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Stella<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

MoEa<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another PETA-Approved vegan shoemaker, MoEa was founded in 2021 to make low-carbon vegan footwear. Pick up a pair of their new Grapes Suede Wine Sneakers<\/a>. Made from waste grape skins from winemaking, these shoes are responsible for carbon emissions 92% lower than comparable mainstream sneaks. And they look 92% more amazing too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Woman<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

PAWJ California<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When the weather really cools down and you\u2019re reaching for your sweater and knit hat, it\u2019s time to pull on a pair of PAWJ boots. Crafted from animal-free suede and vegan shearling, they\u2019re comfy and cozy and come in several colors and styles (mini, short, tall, slippers, and clogs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
