About

Minuit Sur Terre is a French vegan shoe and accessories brand founded in 2017 by Marie Viard-Klein. The idea began when Marie struggled to find shoes that combined style, quality, pricing, and materials free from animal products. She created the label to offer a fashion-focused alternative. Minuit Sur Terre vegan shoes include sneakers, boots, ankle boots, loafers, sandals, heels, and flats. The brand also produces handbags and small accessories. Every product is PETA-approved vegan and made without leather, wool, silk, animal-based glue, or animal-derived materials. Collections use recycled and plant-based alternatives made from grapes, apples, cereals, mushrooms, and recycled plastic. The shoes and bags are produced in Portuguese workshops, with many manufacturing stages completed by hand. Materials are selected to balance appearance, durability, comfort, and environmental impact. The brand favors European production and a measured approach to seasonal collections. For shoppers searching for French vegan shoes, Minuit Sur Terre offers cruelty-free footwear with modern styling, innovative materials, and transparent production. Its range provides leather-free options for work, everyday dressing, travel, and occasions without limiting customers to basic or casual designs.

NAE offers women’s and men’s styles across everyday and dress footwear, including sneakers, loafers, sandals, boots and heels.

For shoppers specifically seeking vegan footwear, NAE’s animal-free requirement applies across the brand, while its separate material and construction details should be checked style by style.

Zouri featured image

Zouri

Portugal · Est. 2017 · Mid-range

Zouri is a Portuguese vegan footwear brand developed from Adriana Mano’s idea of turning plastic collected on the country’s beaches into shoe components. The project began in 2017. It works with local institutions, volunteers and environmental groups on coastal cleanups, then combines recovered plastic with other materials in its footwear. The range includes sneakers, sandals and espadrilles. Materials depend on the model and can include organic cotton, linen, hemp, cork or plant-based alternatives. Zouri’s official site describes production in Portugal and says a pair comes with information about its materials, the collected plastic and the people involved in making it. That product-level detail is useful for shoppers assessing the brand’s environmental claims. Zouri sells directly through its website, where shoppers can filter styles by footwear type and material. Check the listing for the composition and properties of a specific pair: a sneaker described as water-resistant, for example, should not be assumed to make the entire range suitable for wet weather. The company’s website lists its contact location in Braga, Portugal.

Kumi Sneakers featured image

Kumi Sneakers

Spain · Est. 2020 · Mid-range

KUMI Sneakers is a Spanish vegan footwear brand started in 2020 by Alexandra Pardo and Sergio Carvajal. Alexandra is from Mallorca and Sergio from Veracruz, Mexico; they developed the project together after settling in Barcelona. Their aim was to make casual sneakers without animal-derived materials, using recycled components and Spanish footwear production. KUMI’s sneakers are handcrafted in small batches by a family-run factory in Elche. The brand identifies recycled materials in its shoes and describes its range as animal-free. It also lists PETA-Approved Vegan and Global Recycled Standard among its credentials. These details make KUMI relevant to shoppers comparing vegan sneakers who want to know where a pair is made and what materials it uses. Its Hygge/22 model is designed as an everyday sneaker. The official website currently advertises a final clearance sale and says those purchases cannot be returned or exchanged. It also warns that Hygge/22 runs small and recommends going up one size. Shoppers should check current stock and the terms shown at checkout before ordering.
