Looking for sustainable vegan winter coats? I’ve found some! They really do exist, you guys.
I’ve been cleaning out my closets since I’ve been feeling all the fresh start/cleansing/decluttering vibes that come with the beginning of the new year, and it’s got me re-examining how useful each piece is. And in doing so, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for my trusty parka. I’ve had it for years, and it’s the one item I get the most use out of. I am living in the Canadian winter, after all!
It’s got me thinking how very important a good quality winter coat is to one’s winter wardrobe, which is why, since so many of us are trying to be more intentional shoppers, I was so interested in finding whether ones existed that were both sustainable and vegan.
And here’s what I found.
Some sustainable options.
Some vegan options.
But, very rarely, both.
As a newbie in this area, I’ve come to understand that oftentimes items can be sustainably made but using recycled/responsibly-sourced animal products. Although this would still be a much better option to purchase overall, I was left wondering what’s left for those of us that still didn’t feel the most comfortable wearing any form of animal product – whether recycled or responsibly sourced. Here, I discovered that these options were fewer.
The good news? I found some great ones! And I was so proud to learn that most of these brands are Canadian. #hometownpride
