Just because you want boots to keep you warm and stylish, that doesn’t mean that you need UGGs! Go leather-free, suede-free and shearling-free and stay warm and dry!

A few years ago, Vegan American Princess posted a blog called The Truth About UGG Boots. This immensely popular post, which includes a must-see video, has gotten thousands of views from people who really care about the cruelty involved in making UGG boots. The popularity of the UGG style has spawned tons of copies and knock-offs made in all kinds of animal leather and fur.

But the good news is that many vegan style “UGGs” and cruelty-free snow boots have emerged because of the growing demand for more humanely made footwear and in all price levels. Even Doc Martens has responded to the vegan boot trend and has produced some fab styles of their own! Here are just a few of the ones I found and I think you’ll reconsider kicking your UGG habit in favor of these alternatives!
