p. sick for the most part, and they look pretty fly, although I wore them during summer and the two shoes melted together while I was sitting...so....They have lasted me longer than I expected them to with their composition though.

 

edit: they're sold out in black, but if you like silver...

Depends what style you are after.

I used to rock DC skate shoes back in the day because they were one of the few skate shoes made entirely out of synthetics. These days leather has crept into my wardrobe and Im not so picky any more.

Shoes like converse and vans would be vegan friendly no ?

I'd be pretty pissed if 600 euro shoes melted together like that.  Did you contact the company or get any compensation or anything?

No, but they weren't like permanently melded, they were sliding and sticking to eachother, like melted chocolate.  They came apart easily and they're not much worse for wear after a little smoothing out with my finger, so I didn't write or anything.  I guess I already knew what could happen with the treebark and latex upper.

Oh OK, that's pretty cool then.  Still wearable and such, then?  How did you size them?

Yeah, they're just as wearable as before, the tree bark is just coated with latex, not laced with it, so it's still perfectly intact.  They fit a little bit roomy, like a half size to a size, so if you're in between sizes, size down.
