Timeless patent black Mary Jane uppers meet contemporary chunky track soles, creating a striking silhouette.
We cut the uppers with Italian patent black vegan leather, which has a lovely lustre and sheen. As with all our footwear, attention has been given to the details. When you take them out of the box, they feel and look like a luxe pair of shoes. The edges are turned over and stitched so the lines are clean.
Inside, you will find a soft vegan suede lining (including under the straps), which makes them super comfy for your feet and allows air to circulate inside, helping them stay cool and dry. The solid metal buckles are fully adjustable to help get the perfect fit.
You can wear them all day and for long distances in comfort. The outsoles (made from TR) have excellent traction with the deep lugs, absorbing shock as you walk. Because of their depth, they are hard-wearing and will last a long time without wearing down. Inside are stitched deep and squishy insoles made with memory foam and recycled content.
We finished them with a WVS emboss underneath the outsole.

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!
