Loafers Track Sole Sand

I have been looking forward to introducing these Track Sole Loafers for several months now whilst waiting for the first batch to be completed at our factory in Portugal.

Timeless bit loafer uppers meet contemporary chunky track soles, creating a striking silhouette.

They are one of my favourite shoes in the collection.

The brushed gold effect solid metal bit complements the grain and lustre of our signature Italian vegan leather made with 69% biobased content. All our footwear is hand burnished at the factory as the final step before being wrapped in non-treated brown paper and then placed in their box. You can easily maintain the shine and colour using regular polish.

One of the reasons I really like these is that they are not just beautiful shoes; their convenience makes them everyday shoes. You can wear them all day and for long distances in comfort. The outsoles have excellent traction with the deep lugs, absorbing shock as you walk. They are hard-wearing and will last a long time without wearing down because of their depth.

Inside are stitched deep and squishy insoles made with memory foam and recycled content. They are lined with tan vegan suede, which makes them super comfy for your feet and allows air to circulate inside, helping them stay cool and dry.

Will's Vegan Store launched in 2012 as a vegan shoe company. Since then, they've moved into fashion and other products as well.

The brand continuously reflects on it's operations to see where they can do better. 

Eco-friendly: The majority of items are made from vegan leather alternatives. Some are still plastic-based (PU/PE), but since 2017 they've introduced more biobased and recycled materials into their vegan leather. They have created a sneaker that's fully biodegradable and are certified carbon neutral.

Extra cool is that they have a take back scheme, where you can send back your old shoes to be recycled into outsoles for new Will Vegan's Shoes.

Vegan: As the name suggest, Will's is a completely vegan brand. It's PETA-approved.

Fair & local production: Will's Vegan produces in factories in Portugal and Italy, of which some are part of the Fair Wear Foundation.
