It’s Earth Day

by grechen on April 22, 2010 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

And I’m conflicted. I’ve mentioned this dilemma before…but today, I’m just going to sit it out. Yes, there are TONS of coupon codes for amazing eco-boutiques and brands, but I really don’t want to contribute to the idea that Earth Day is another consumer holiday (which it is) by posting all of them. Today shouldn’t be different than any other day, we should think about how ethical and environmentally friendly the products we buy are EVERYDAY, not just on the “official” day. I really try to encourage that here at Green Grechen, but I feel like if I post all the sales and coupons, I’m just feeding into the hype. Know what I mean?

Thanks for understanding ;)
and please, enjoy the earth today.

I love clogs. If you follow my other site, Grechen’s Closet, at all, you know this already. And I’m ecstatic that they’re back “in” style now because of all the options out there. Unfortunately, you cannot imagine how hard it was to find vegan clogs online that I’d actually wear. Or maybe you can. Sure, there are lots of vegan clog options out there, including the dreaded CROC, but I wouldn’t be caught dead or alive wearing any of them. I almost had to give up, but I did manage to find a few pairs of vegan “clogs” that are somewhat stylish (if only Swedish Hasbeens made a non-leather version of any of their clogs).

And just to clarify, my definition of a clog is a shoe with a wood sole & heel (NOT A WEDGE) and preferably with some sort of nails or staples fastening the upper to the sole. What exactly IS a clog is a definitely point of contention around the blogosphere lately, now that clogs are “in” – but I’m sticking to my guns on this one…

So…here goes! Let me know if you find any more stylish vegan clogs out there…



Ethical Wares

These vegan t-strap clog sandals are available at UK site Ethical Wares for approximately $92. They also have a couple of other pairs of decent-looking vegan clog sandals, although I do wish the heels were a bit higher on all of them. It would balance out the heavier styles in my opinion.

Lulu’s

These could also be called a platform sandal, but according to my definition, they’re a clog. $31 at Lulu’s:

Alternative Outfitters

I’m sorry, but I actually think the heel on these is very ugly – but aside from that, the shoe isn’t bad…$29 at Alternative Outfitters:

Etsy

Etsy turned out to be a good option for vegan clogs – all “vintage” or used at least…I found two pairs, one was sold out already, but this pair isn’t bad:

Sanita

I do still love a “classic” clog, either with a back or without, and Sanita makes a nice vegan option – but while I think this shoe is pretty to look at (the pattern, anyway), it’s hard to wear. Sanita does make a floral patterned high-heel sandal, but it’s lined with leather, so not appropriate here.

Stella McCartney

And I had to save the best, most stylish vegan clog/sandal for last – Stella McCartney:

What do you think? would you wear any of these? Have you found any other vegan clog options? do tell!!!
