olsen haus vegan shoes!
Posted by Alicia Silverstone on Jul 23, 2010

 

I wanted to let all of you know about Olsen Haus, which is a New York based shoe brand that is completely, 100% vegan!  Not only is every style totally vegan, but their shoes are also really cute and fashionable.

I recently read an interview with Elizabeth Olsen, who is the head designer for Olsen Haus. Here is what she had to say about their new collection: “Our Fall 2010 collection is made with recycled upper of material that originated as TV factory waste. We are also experimenting with a recycled tire sole on a few styles, along with sustainable cork and wood detailing. A recycled heel is also in the works. Otherwise, we utilize organic cotton canvas, nylon, linen, and velvets – all breathable, high-quality products that surpass leather in all respects. The glue used for making the shoes is animal product free as well”

I love this! It’s great that there are people out there making beautiful, high quality shoes, that are also vegan, recycled, AND eco friendly!

They’re not exactly inexpensive – but if you’re in the market to spend on a new pair of cute shoes, these are a good way to go!  

Let me know what your favorite vegan shoe brand is!

I am so happy to hear that there are some progressive designers out there that have values behind their product. I only hope to see more fashion designers follow in the footsteps of Olsen Haus, and show some respect and love for animals as sentient beings, instead of seeing them as disposable property!! Thanks Alicia!

I am in my best friend's wedding next month and have been searching for shoes!! I will check this out... thanks so much!

@Emily Neuaura has some really pretty formal/wedding styles http://www.neuaurashoes.com/

I love my "Simple" boots!  They have soles made of recycled tires, buttons made of coconut, and the fabric of the boots is made of hemp.  They are super comfortable and cute, I first saw them on the vegan website http://www.mooshoes.com, which has more than just shoes.

o man! i went to karmavore and i am totally in love with that site! and i want like 50 billion pairs of vegan TOMS too! =D

I have just saw these shoes here, I like Olsen Haus branded shoes. I was finding some shoe in wholesale shoes shops for my friends wedding. I have decided now to buy 2 pairs of these shoes, if i can afford these for 2 pairs otherwise i wll definitely take 1 pair of this 100% vegan. I always like vegan shoes to wear. Thanks for sharing this before my friends wedding.
