Firstly, what are vegan shoes?
Vegan trainers are made without animal-derived materials, such as leather or fur; this also includes any trace of animal DNA in dyes and glues.
Trainers are not tested on animals and use animal-free alternatives where necessary.
At Gola, all our vegan shoes and trainers are animal and by-product free.
However, don’t just take our word for it – our Gola Classics vegan range is also registered by the Vegan Society!
Vegan Society registered shoes at Gola
Gola’s vegan range is registered by the Vegan Society, which means our vegan trainers have undergone several checks to ensure their 100% animal-free status. Below, you can read more about the Gola vegan range and what it means to be accredited by the Vegan Society.
What is the Vegan Society?
The Vegan Society is the longest-standing vegan organisation in the world. It was founded in 1944, the same year it coined the term ‘vegan’. Since then, the Vegan Society’s stamp of approval has allowed brands to instil confidence in consumers, confirming that any product with the Vegan Society trademark is completely animal-free.
What does Vegan Society registered mean?
Vegan Society registration means that our vegan trainers meet the strict criteria and standards the Vegan Society sets, which means our vegan footwear does not contain any animal-derived ingredients and no animal testing is carried out throughout the production process.
How does the Vegan Society certify products?
The Vegan Society employs specialist teams to review and investigate every product, examining them against their high standards and criteria to confirm a 100% animal and cruelty-free status. This process is reviewed yearly to ensure each product and manufacturer continues to meet the Vegan Society’s high standards.
