Always difficult for me having big feet (size 14) and being vegan to find walking shoes that fit both criteria, but found Ethical Wares and now have an excellent pair of walking shoes! Very pleased with the rapid service and shoes which look great, sturdy and comfortable.

Kathmandu walking shoes ; very comfortable on first use and good impact resistance for my knees.

I've had a pair for 3 years. I use them as my normal day-to-day "around town" shoes, especially in wet weather. Very comfortable once broken in (I have particularly sticky-out ankle bones). These are the vegan shoes I've been looking for for the last 20 years!

i bought my second pair of these in December, the first pair are about 5 years old and though still wearable, the soles are starting to thin so I wanted to make sure I had a replacement pair ready! I've worn them on pretty much a daily basis, including city days out, countryside hiking, coast walks and music festivals. They are really comfortable shoes and I would highly recommend them.

Excellent and very high quality!

I've been wearing these for over almost five months, and they are still in excellent condition. The soles still look brand new.

Normally I only wear trainers for the comfort, but I've never liked having to replace them each year (or two if I'm lucky) due to the soles wearing out.
So having gone from trainers to these shoes, I'm hugely impressed by how sturdy and well made the soles are on these shoes are. From now on I'll always be buying and wearing these types of shoes instead.
They are just as comfortable as trainers but also allow me to go on hikes without worrying about the conditions of the ground.

As recommended on the site, I purchased one size larger than I needed, and I'm very glad I did, they fit perfectly and I couldn't be happier with them.

I HIGHLY recommend these shoes. They are superb value for money and I've no doubt that they will last a very long time.
