Classic Square Toe Ballet Flats with a gold metal bit.
For these flats, we used an extra soft and supple version of our signature Italian vegan leather made with 69% bio-based content. The backs and sides of the uppers have only the vegan suede lining as a backing, so they are soft and flexible. They move and shape with your feet as you walk, helping make these flats super comfy.
The brushed gold-effect solid metal bit complements the grain and lustre of the Italian vegan leather. It runs parallel to the square toe shape, creating a minimalist shoe with striking lines.
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.
The outsoles provide a nice flex on the toes, while the low-profile 1cm heels offer a balanced stride. Inside are stitched deep and squishy insoles made with memory foam and recycled content. They are lined with cream vegan suede, which makes them super comfy for your feet and allows air to circulate inside, helping them stay cool and dry.
They have been finished with a WVS emboss on the heel.

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.
Shop Like You Give a Damn is an online vegan & fair department store, started out of the frustration of vegan shopping. The founders of Shop Like You Give a Damn wanted to be able to shop easily, with a wide range of stylish clothing, shoes, bags and cosmetics, of which you know for sure that they are vegan. Still quite tricky, because often you only find out after ordering that there is a leather patch on the jeans, that some wool has been processed in a sweater, or that the glue in the shoes is not vegan (if you ever find out).
Fortunately, there is a wide range of vegan products that are also made fairly and sustainably. These products are only fragmented over the internet in small webshops. Shop Like You Give a Damn brings all these products together in an online department store, where they have researched for you why and in what way a product is sustainable and of course whether it is actually vegan. This makes vegan shopping fun and easy!
