Why Holster sandals are 100% vegan

Why Holster sandals are 100% vegan

Vegan shoes are no longer a niche, they are a conscious choice that more and morewomen are making. Not only for the sake of animals, but also because veganmaterials are more comfortable, more durable, and easier to maintain than you mightexpect. At Holster, 100% vegan is not a label added afterwards, it is the foundationon which every model is built.

What Are Vegan Sandals?

Holster sandals are made from EVA foam and PVC mesh, two synthetic materials that do not require any animal welfare and still perform exceptionally well. EVA foam is known for its lightweight cushioning and flexibility. PVC mesh is breathable, soft, and adapts effortlessly to the foot. Both materials are also water-resistant and easy to clean, qualities that leather rarely matches. Every Holster model is registered with the Vegan Society UK, meaning that every component, from sole to laces, meets the strictest vegan standards. A vegan shoe does not only start with the right materials; the production process must consistently follow that choice. At Holster, every design undergoes a strict vegan protocol, from the first sketch to the final product. No animal-based glues, no uncertified suppliers, no exceptions. This protocol is not something Holster follows because it is required, it is a choice that has been upheld for over twenty years.

Comfort and Health 

PVC mesh, used in models such as the Laze, Soleseeker, and Chill, allows air to circulate through the shoe, creating a pleasant wearing experience even in warm conditions. EVA foam does not absorb moisture and dries quickly after contact with water. The result is a shoe that stays fresh even after a long day. No wet feet, no unpleasant odors, just lasting comfort.

Hypoallergenic Properties 

EVA foam is naturally hypoallergenic. It contains no animal proteins or chemical tanning processes that can cause allergic reactions in leather shoes. For women with sensitive skin or foot issues, this is not a minor detail; it is a difference that you feel every day. The soft, smooth structure of EVA also reduces friction, preventing blisters and irritation. 

Sustainability and Ethics 

EVA foam has a significantly smaller ecological footprint than leather. Its production requires no livestock, no chemical tanning, and no intensive water use. In addition, Holster sandals are designed to last, they are machine washable, resistant to water and odor, and recover well after heavy use. A shoe that lasts longer means less disposable waste and less environmental impact.

Holster also uses recycled materials for packaging where possible as part of a broader commitment to reducing environmental impact. Holster was founded in 2001 with a belief that remains strong today: shoes can be beautiful without harming anything or anyone. That choice is not only good for animals and the environment, it is also good for you. No compromises on comfort, no doubts about origin, no hidden ingredients. Just a shoe you can stand behind, step by step.

By choosing Holster, you choose shoes made with respect for animals, the planet, and the woman who wears them.
