Vegan-Friendly Winter Boots Brands:

In this guide, I’m sharing 10+ footwear brands offering a range of premium vegan boots for winter. I’m defining “vegan” here as shoes that were made without any animal materials like leather, suede, wool, fur, etc. Below is a list of footwear brands that are either 100% vegan or that have some vegan winter boot options.

• Vegetarian Shoes – 100% Vegan
• Kamik

Vegetarian Shoes

If you’re looking for vegan leather winter boots that are fashionable and stylish, then Vegetarian Shoes has a great collection. Their boots are not necessarily waterproof, but they are water-resistant. A good choice for urban hikers or for everyday wears to keep your feet and toes warm.

• Ice Patrol MK2 £134.50
• Snowdon Boot £200
• Veggie Trekker MK5 £215
• Caribou Boot £89.95

All of Vegetarian Shoes are vegan, including the glues.

Kamik

Not all of Kamik’s boots are vegan, as they do use animal leather in some styles, but they have the best selection and variety of vegan winter boots to shop from. Best of all, Kamik clearly labels which of their shoes are vegan which makes it easier to shop and browse from their large selection of waterproof vegan winter boots.

Kamik also confirmed to me in an email response that their Vegan shoe collection contains vegan glue.

Columbia

Columbia offers some of the best quality and high-performing winter boots on the market. Not all Columbia boots are vegan, as they do use animal leather and suede materials, but Columbia does have some waterproof boots made with all-vegan materials.

Columbia doesn’t label their shoes as “vegan,” so you’ll have to check the composition of each of their shoes to make sure they’re made with non-animal and synthetic materials. I found that most of their Omni-Heat styles are vegan-friendly. Also, it’s best to avoid Columbia boots that appear to contain leather or suede, as they tend to use animal leather instead of synthetic leather.

• Women’s Minx Mid III Boot $140
• Women’s Heavenly Omni-Heat Waterproof Boot $140
• Women’s Slopeside Village Omni-Heat Mid Boot $120
• Women’s Firecamp Boot $110
• Women’s Minx Slip IV Boot $110
• Women’s Minx Shorty III Boot $120
• Women’s Minx Mid III Boot $140

Cougar

Cougar makes modern footwear that is waterproof and functional. Not all Cougar shoes and boots are vegan but they do offer a few styles that are made with nylon and vegan materials. It’s best to avoid any of their boots that look like leather materials as Cougar mostly uses animal leather over synthetics.

Thankfully, Cougar also labels which of their shoes and boots are vegan in the product description, so it’s easy to filter and find which of their shoes are suitable for vegans.

• Ultima Nylon Waterproof Winter Boot $200
• Savvy Nylon Waterproof Boot $175
• Meteor Nylon Waterproof Winter Boot $180
• Meridian Nylon Waterproof Winter Boot $180
• Ultra Nylon Waterproof Winter Boot $180
• Magneto Nylon Waterproof Winter Boot $200
• Whammo Nylon Waterproof Winter Boot $160
• River Nylon Waterproof Sneaker $140
• Wizard Nylon Waterproof Boot $160

In addition, Cougar was also able to confirm that none of their glues contain animal by-products, therefore their shoe glues are vegan.

Skechers

Not all of Skechers shoes are vegan as they do use animal leather and suede materials in most of their boots. But Skechers does have some vegan cold-weather boots made with micro-leather and suede-textured materials that look like the real thing but are made without animal cruelty. Skechers shoes are known to be lightweight and comfortable to wear for long walks.

If you’re shopping on Skechers’ website, you can filter out their vegan shoes by hovering over ‘Technology’ > and then clicking ‘Vegan’.

• Synergy – Collab $90
• Synergy – Cool Sneaker $90
• Easy Going – Gold Rush $110
• Keepsakes Wedge – Snow Kiss $105
• Relaxed Fit: Easy Going – Winter Kiss $110

Skechers confirmed the glues they use are water-based and not animal-derived, therefore Skechers shoe glues are vegan-friendly.

Noize

Noize is a 100% vegan apparel, footwear, and accessories brand. Some of their vegan winter boots are unisex, but they mostly offer women’s sizes. Noize’s comfy and cozy boots are made from all-vegan and some eco-friendly materials like post-consumer recycled water bottles and recycled fill.

• Arden Puffer Slipper Boot (Unisex) $140
• Rye Puffer Bottie (Unisex) – $129
• Aya Puffer Boot $158
• Emmi Puffer Bootie $120
• Harmony Pull-on Puffer Boot $150

Helly Hansen

Helly Hansen is known for its professional-grade sports and outdoor apparel designed to help you stay protected in the world’s harshest environments. Most of their boots contain leather or suede, but this year, I noticed they had a few winter boots made of all synthetic materials, but none of them were advertised as being Vegan. So, I emailed the brand and they confirmed the following Helly Hansen boots are free from animal materials and adhesives:

• Women’s Beloved 2.0 Winter Boots $150
• Women’s Isolabella 2 Winter Boots $170
• Women’s Gamvik Waterproof Winter Boots $140
• Women’s Isolabella 2 Demi Winter Boots $150

Baffin

Baffin is an innovative, leading outerwear company based in Stoney Creek, Ontario, Canada. Their core focus is technically advanced, innovative footwear and high-performance apparel. Although Baffin is not an entirely vegan brand, they do offer some vegan winter boots for men and women.

Baffin’s vegan-friendly footwear are easily identifiable when shopping on their website. Just look for the Vegan Icon under the ‘Features’ portion of their product description.

I went through Baffin’s collection of men’s and women’s winter boots and spotted the Vegan Icon in the following:

And I confirmed with Baffin that the above boots contain vegan glues.

SOREL

SOREL specializes in making waterproof winter boots that are guaranteed to keep you warm, comfortable, and dry.

Not all SOREL boots are vegan as they do use animal skins and furs in some of their shoes. But SOREL does offer some styles that are made with synthetic and vegan-friendly materials. You’ll have to read each shoe composition as SOREL doesn’t label any of their shoes as “vegan.”

The following SOREL boots appear to be vegan as I didn’t spot any genuine leather, suede, or fur in the product description:

• Women’s Winter Carnival Boot $180
• Women’s Whitney II Short Lace Boot $140
• Women’s Whitney II Tall Lace Boot $150
• Women’s Caribou Royal Boot $225
• Women’s Kinetic Impact NXT Boot $175

Also, note that SOREL is unable to guarantee their glues are vegan, stating, “We try to avoid animal based glue whenever possible, but there can be animal byproducts used in some of our glues.” If this is a deal-breaker for you then SOREL may not be a suitable option for you, choose from the other options on this list.

The North Face

The North Face has a couple of accidentally vegan winter boots made with their ThermoBall Eco insulation designed to keep your feet toasty warm.

Most of their boots contain leather or suede, but The North Face’s Women’s ThermoBall Lace Up Waterproof Boots ($149) and Women’s ThermoBall Progressive Zip II Waterproof Boots ($129) both appear to be vegan and made from all synthetic and some recycled materials.

For something more robust, their Women’s Summit Series Breithorn FUTURELIGHT Boots ($280) also seem to be made from all vegan materials.

The North Face confirmed they use synthetic-based glues, making their shoe glues vegan.

Alexandra K’s Vegan Snow Boots

Vegan and sustainable fashion brand, Alexandra K. offers a pair of waterproof vegan snow boots ($295) that’s stylish and environmentally responsible. Designed with innovative, vegan materials and crafted from plant-based Italian fabrics, these vegan snow boots are a work of art, made with the utmost attention to detail and designed to showcase the harmony between nature and technology.

Xero Shoes – Alpine Vegan Snow Boots

If you prefer lightweight, minimalist vegan show boots that are fully waterproof, then check out Xero’s Alpine Vegan Boots ($160) for Men and Women. Alpine is the perfect balance between lightweight and cozy and has 200g of insulation so they should keep your feet warm no matter where your adventures take you.

Made from 100% vegan-friendly materials, these snow boots are still lightweight and grippy with a luggy tread that gives you sure-footed traction and a flexible, non-elevated (zero-drop) sole that lets your foot move naturally.

Call it Spring

Based in Canada, Call it Spring offers a great collection of vegan winter and snow boots at an affordable price. Most of their stylish boots are $100 and under. All of Call it Spring shoes are 100% Peta-Approved Vegan and made from recycled materials that are gentle on the planet.

Most styles of their boots are waterproof and temperature-rated for up to -20°C so that your feet can stay warm and dry. Shop from Call it Spring’s collection of men’s and women’s vegan winter boots, whether you prefer something chunky, puffy, mid-calf, or short, they have it all!

Bogs

Unfortunately, I can no longer recommend Bogs as a vegan alternative. Their Arcata Geo boot partly contains wool materials but you’d only know that if you had the shoes in front of you with the tags as their website doesn’t mention anything about wool.

I reached out to Bogs to ask for clarifications but never heard back. Therefore, I am not sure about the accuracy of their website’s product descriptions for all their other supposedly ‘vegan’ boots. I think it’s best to avoid Bogs when shopping online. If you’re shopping in person, check the tags for a more accurate description of the composition and materials.

• Whiteout Woven $180
• Snownights $155
• Arcata Geo  $190 *Note: these are NOT vegan. They contain 15% wool!

Looking for a sustainable suede jacket? Consider buying second-hand but if you want new, check the labels and look for recycled polyester and other certified sustainable materials.

The post Exploring the Best Vegan Boot Brands for Men: A Comprehensive List | 2023 Update! appeared first on ethical elephant.

Looking for a luxurious vegan fur coat or jacket to keep you stylishly warm this season? In this post, I’m sharing a list of the best faux-fur & ethical fashion brands offering a collection of chic vegan fur outerwear that look and feel like the real thing but without animal cruelty!

Nowadays, it’s fairly easy to find faux fur and vegan fur coats and outerwear. Most retailers and fast fashion brands are opting for faux fur as a cheaper alternative to real fur.

In addition, many designers and retailers including Nordstrom, Burberry, Versace, and Gucci, have announced their decision to stop designing and producing fur products.

Discover the Beauty of Vegan Fur Coats

With so many faux-fur options available on the market today, I would recommend and prioritize buying your vegan fur coats and apparel from ethical and vegan fashion brands. Or the most sustainable option is to buy second-hand!

Cheap faux-fur products that you can get anywhere like at Target or on Amazon are not always the best for the environment. As they’re made with cheap synthetic materials like chemical-based plastics that can do more harm than good for the planet. Vegan and ethical fashion brands are more mindful and thoughtful about the production and manufacturing of their faux-fur products.

In addition, a 2018 and 2019 article revealed shops like Amazon, Boohoo, and TK Maxx were selling faux fur clothes and bags which were actually made from rabbit, fox, and raccoon dog fur.

By supporting 100% vegan & ethical fashion designers, you won’t have to double-check to make sure the item is actually made with faux fur and vegan materials. You’ll also be supporting a business that refuses to use any animal materials and fibers in any of its collection.

Apparis

Based in New York, Apparis designs high-quality vegan fur coats and accessories for all shapes, sizes, and styles! Apparis has a great selection of faux fur coats, jackets, and apparel that are effortlessly bold and incredibly soft. Apparis vegan fur outerwear costs between $245-$615.

Looking for a pair of stylish vegan leather boots this season? In this guide, I’m sharing a list of 30 vegan shoe brands that offer a collection of premium faux-leather boots for women and men.

Whether you’re looking for a pair of chic vegan leather Chelsea boots, timeless classic lace-up boots, statement vegan cowboy boots, or vegan knee high boots, there’s something for you in this list!

What are vegan leather boots made of?

Simply put, vegan leather is made from any other material that did not come from animals. Vegans avoid materials like animal-based leather, suede, wool, and silk.

Vegan leather is usually a synthetic material made from a type of PVC or PU but we’re also seeing more innovative and sustainable materials being used today like pineapple leather (Piñatex) and leather made from grapes or recycled materials.

So, note that not all vegan leather is created equally. If you’re looking for vegan leather boots made with sustainable materials and ethical manufacturing practices, I encourage you to always check the brands’ website for more information.

PAWJ Vegan Ugg Alternatives

If you like variety, check out PAWJ’s collection of vegan UGG boots. They have lots of different styles and various colors to shop from, and they’re all entirely vegan! PAWJ’s vegan boots are made from high-quality synthetic suede and faux fur. Their silhouette and colors are quite similar to UGG’s their mini’s height is 5.25″ compared to UGG’s which are 5″.

Call It Spring – Letstayin

Based in Canada, Call it Spring is a PETA-approved vegan footwear brand offering a range of affordable, cruelty-free shoes. This season, Call it Spring released Letstayin, a chunky vegan Chelsea bootie with a round toe, lug sole, and faux-fur lining. It also claims to be waterproof and made from 30% recycled mattresses. Available in three colors.

Bearpaw – Vegan Options

For the most affordable vegan Ugg boot alternative option, I would recommend Bearpaw. Although not entirely vegan, Bearpaw launched a collection of vegan shoes made with all vegan materials. Most of their vegan boots and slippers are quite similar to UGG’s when it comes to styles, colors, and height. **Just make sure you’re buying the ones that specifically say they’re ‘Vegan’ in the product name.** Some of Bearpaw’s vegan boots can also be found on Amazon.

Also, Bearpaw has confirmed to me that the glues they use in their Vegan shoes are made without animal by-products.

Vegetarian Shoes – Snug Boot

Instead of UGG’s classic short boots, try Vegetarian Shoes’ Snug Boot instead! Made in Europe, these vegan boots look like UGGs but are made from soft and breathable faux-suede and lined throughout the interior with fleecy faux-sheep wool. Your feet will stay cozy and warm, and so will the animals because absolutely no animals were harmed or killed for these cute vegan boots!

And if you’re looking for a pair of vegan UGGs made with sustainable materials, Vegetarian Shoes has one made with pineapple leather!

Are UGGs Vegan?

Unfortunately, UGG’s boots are NOT vegan. The classic UGG boots are made with animal materials like sheepskin, animal leather, fur, suede, and/or wool.

UGG states in its product descriptions, “This product contains real fur from sheep or lamb. Fur may be sourced from Australia, Ireland, the United Kingdom, or the United States. It has been artificially dyed and treated. Made in China.”

Beware of Sellers on Amazon

You can shop for vegan boots like UGGs on Amazon, as they have a lot of styles and options made with cheap faux materials that are technically vegan.

But there’s very little information available about these resellers and their ethical practices. Throughout the years, reports have shown some retailers (like Boohoo) selling items labeled as “faux-fur”. But upon investigation, it turns out they were actually made from real animal fur.

I think it’s best to avoid buying faux-fur products on Amazon from brands or sellers you aren’t familiar with. What I do when I shop on Amazon is actually Google the brand or company name first. If they don’t have a legitimate website and the only search result that shows up is a link to their Amazon store, I don’t buy from them.
