8 Vegan Fashion Brands To Buy Your Back To School Clothes From
Whether you have gone full vegan or think that buying your clothes vegan is an easier way for you to personally limit the amount of animal products you use, there are so many vegan fashion brands to shop from.
Summer is well and truly under way and you may already be thinking about what you’re going to wear when you go back to school. Here are 8 vegan fashion brands that we are loving for you to find that perfect outfit for the new school year!
HeartCure Clothing
HeartCure started in 2016 to raise money for Brook Farm Animal Sanctuary, a vegan haven for farmed animals in need. Since starting out two years ago, they have not only raised thousands for the sanctuary but expanded their support to activists and grass roots organisations. They have really cool vegan-themed T-shirts, hoodies and jogger that are ethically made from organic and recycled materials. They also offer worldwide shipping!
MUD Jeans
In 2013, Bert van Son introduced Lease A Jeans, an innovative approach to offer guilt-free consumption. It did not make sense to him that so many of us keep jeans that we don’t wear, and it didn’t make sense to throw them away either. So, he founded MUD Jeans that creates new jeans from old jeans through a complete circular economy – the only brand to do so. MUD Jeans allows customers to shop guilt free and do good for the environment, while looking fashionable and modern. As a successful vegan fashion brand, they have won several awards, such as the Sustainability Leadership Award and the Peta Vegan Awards.

As trendmakers in fashion footwear, they bring fresh styles straight off the catwalk. “Here at Koi we also care about being compassionate and show this by being 100% Vegan!

Their pieces are contemporary and all easy-to-wear that are sure to become your go-to’s. Their mantra is “Wear me, love me, mend me, pass me on” and is supposed to remind us all to look after what we own. We think that’s a pretty good message to live by.
People Tree
For over 25 years, People Tree has partnered with Fair Trade producers, garment workers, artisans and farmers in the developing world to produce ethical and eco fashion collections. “When you shop with People Tree, you can trust that your goods were made ethically and sustainably.” People Tree is a different kind of fashion business giving customers an alternative to fast fashion. The fast fashion industry is fueled by insatiable demand for cheap clothing and accessories. Fast fashion has a devastating impact, from sweatshops and child labour to pollution and global warming. Slow Fashion means standing up against exploitation, family separation, slum cities and pollution – all the things that make fast fashion so successful. They make beautiful pieces made from sustainable materials that do not harm the planet or its people in a negative way.
