Does your pedi passion extend to foot fashion? Evanston's Ethical Planet will outfit you in trendy and casual footwear like breezy mary janes, cotton flips, and spot-on chucks (see photo) made with animal-friendly vegetan and renewable cork. Its vegan shoes cut down on toxic substances such as formaldehyde and cyanide-based dyes commonly used in leather tanneries; lessen water waste during the tanning process; and avert the inhumane treatment of animals in countries where leather is often sourced. And those low-top hipster kicks are just the thing for indulging in our other passion: showing off. |
