If you are like me and really want to find a pair of winter boots this year that are ethical, sustainable, vegetarian, vegan or a mix of either; check out some of these brands and styles.
Oliberte
This brand is a fair trade footwear company in Ethiopia. Not a vegan brand as the shoes and boots are leather and suede but they are ethically produced and vertically intergrated. All parts come from Africa and the product is made in Africa.

Good Cloth
The Good Cloth has a wide range of products from brands and companies around the world. You can find products that are either fair trade, vegan, trade on aid, sustainable, organic, and recycled.
This pair of Italian vegan boots have the look of suede but is made of Alcantara.
