Veganism is a lifestyle, an increasingly real and present sustainable option these days. It’s motivated by animals and consequently by the environment, people and health and rejects exploitation, cruelty and mistreatment of animals. Environmental impacts aren’t limited to gas emissions, but also water consumption, overuse of land and inefficient food production.

Vegan footwear has impacted the fashion world due to its sustainability and choosing this type of footwear has an impact in several areas. In one hand, you avoid animals suffering from the process and on the other hand, you encourage the regional economy, generate less waste in the environment and have the opportunity to wear unique pieces.

Vegan shoes contain nothing of animal origin and this also extends to the issue of testing. If any of the materials used are tested on animals, they are no longer considered vegan. They are created from different synthetic or plant-based materials, such as:

• Recycled cotton;
• Bamboo;
• Cannabis;
• Apple skin;
• Cereals;
• Jute rope;
• Cork;
• Palm leaves;
• Recycled plastic.

Vegan shoes are the future and leaving footprints without pain is Lazuli's path.
