While searching for the best vegan sandals for this post, I was really encouraged by all that I found. There are WAY more vegan options out there than we think and believe it or not--I think many designers have finally begun to turn away from PVC and towards polyurethane, a more eco-friendly synthetic leather. Yipeee! This can only be a sign of more good things to come.
