Finding vegan shoes that are made with high-quality materials can sometimes be a challenge when searching for a particular style but Von D Shoes introduced an intriguing collection of footwear with designs that are made with apple leather. As Kat Von D herself describes, "The new vegan leathers that are coming out every day are impressive and not only beautiful and durable, but many of them are extremely sustainable and eco-friendly. We found an amazing family-owned company that’s producing our leather from compressed apples."
In response to the demand for cruelty-free footwear, brands are launching innovative shoes and accessories made with leather alternatives that are made with simple and natural plant-based materials, including everything from olives and pineapple to mushrooms.
