I’m searching for boots similar to these but vegan for obvious reasons. I love boots but haven’t had them for years because I couldn’t find any cool-looking.

    Source on these claims? Leather production isn’t exactly easy on the environment, nor the health of (typically third-world country) workers involved in the process.

    Personally I’ve been wearing the same pair of synthetic leather boots to my job which has me walk ~20k steps a day for 5 years now, and the only part of the shoe showing signs of wear is the rubber sole, which I had to glue back on.
