Vegetarian Star

Daily-foot

Okay, so their feet look small on stage and this picture is kinda blurry, but this tidbit came from none other than the Macbeth headquarters, so you know it’s gotta be fact.

Switchfoot has been updating their blog, The Daily Foot, with photos of concerts and the boys just chilling out and having fun.

Some of the photos uploaded show the band rocking in Macbeth vegan shoes!

Several musical acts like Tegan and Sara, Frank Iero, and Missy Higgins have used Macbeth’s cruelty free vegan shoes to support their feet while jumping and lunging during concerts.

Including shoes designed by celebrities, Macbeth has quite a selection of vegan footwear. 

With so many trendy shoes available without animal products, why would anyone ever want to buy leather?

Not long ago, we told you how Frank Iero of My Chemical Romance and LeATHERMOUTH designed some vegan shoes for MacBeth that included anatomically correct figures and instructions showing men and women how to check for and prevent testicular and breast cancer.

Here’s a video of Frank personally introducing the shoe in which portions of the sales go to the Syrentha Savio Endowment, a non-profit organization that works to fight breast cancer.

Frank shows where and how to cut the shoe to reveal his “artwork.”

There are two versions of the shoe, rated G and PG-13, depending on if you want to “fight” cancer, or use a more color expression, as you can see from the still frame of the video. 

Franks jokes he hopes you like it, but if you don’t, don’t tell him.

We’ll clear the air of any suspicion: We like them!

Vegan, ethical blogger Discerning Brute caught up with fashion expert and Project Runway’s Tim Gunn during Fashion Week in New York to get his thoughts on fur in the fashion industry.

Gunn has recorded an anti-fur video in the past and has such a fearful reputation, fur wearing celebrities run the opposite direction when they see him.

He explained to The Brute that while he doesn’t necessarily advocate fake fur, there are plenty out there for those interested in getting that “cavemen look.”

“If someone wants to look like a cavemen…if that’s the look that they want, they sure have a good one [selection of fake fur],” Gunn said.

Check out the video to hear Tim talk, and if you’re a speed reader, you can view the credit roll that appears in the video listing all the fur-free fashion designers.

The Tegan and Sara Macbeth Shoes! by Sara and Emy

Pop music twins Tegan and Sara have a nice pair of a new MacBeth vegan shoes out this month and looks like Sara did a little self-promo via a conversation with Emy Storey, the Art Director for the ladies who played a big role in making the shoes, posted on Myspace.

Cute twins, cruelty free shoes shoes-it doesn’t get any happier than this.

Sara and Emy spend a lot of time joking around-like mentioning that Sara sewed all the shoes herself. And spent thousands of hours on them.

“She grew rubber trees and made the soles,” Emy remarks.

“I know you think you’re so funny,” replies Sara sarcastically.

Sara asks Emy what she specifically used for inspiration to make the shoe and after Emy explains, Sara says that basically she listened to them exactly and that makes her a Tegan and Sara shoe bitch.

Love it!

• Best Vegetarian Stories Of 2015

Ethical fashion designer and daughter of ex Beatle Paul McCartney, Stella McCartney, recently opened one of her clothing boutiques in Paris, France.

She shared the evening with dad Paul and his girlfriend, some say fiancee Nancy Shevell.

Being the vegetarian family they are, the McCartneys and Nancy had a gourmet veg dinner at Le Grand Vefour which included artichoke crème brulee.

Shevell is probably learning to love all the veg food she can if she’s going to wed Paul soon. She’s already been reported to have quit eating meat to please Paul earlier in their relationship.

My Chemical Romance’s Frank Iero has completed a project for MacBeth Shoes that will allow wearers to screw cancer and vegan at the same time. Hot!

The shoe contains detailed print instructions, complete with anatomically correct characters on the insoles, which show the wearer how to check for breast and testicular cancer. Frank was both the fashion developer and the artist for these shoes, as he drew the figures inside the soles.

In an interview with Alternative Press, Frank said he based the design off a previous vegan shoe, then elaborated a little.

“I based it off the older design that I had–it was called the Wallister. I [designed] another pair–I think it was one of the first they developed. I took some stuff from that, and just added and took away as far as the canvas, low-top shoe. For my [new] design concept I just drew a couple of pictures, and that’s what came out.”

On the heels, there are two messages, depending on if you want rated PG or more risque, you can choose between “F**k Cancer” or “Cancer Fighter.”

Frank knows the ugliness of cancer personally, as his aunt is a breast cancer survivor who also had a relapse.

A portion of the proceeds go to Syrentha Savio Endowment, a non-profit organization focused on fighting breast cancer.
