These handsome RAF derby shoes are from NAK, a new brand that creates high quality shoes without any animal being killed or suffering cruelty. Made in Italy from a microfibre with a structure similar to real leather, it makes a material which looks, feels and even smells (to me anyway) just like the real thing.
At present the men's collection comprises a derby, oxford, a chelsea boot and a mid-laced boot. The shoes I was sent are very lightweight and beautifully-made. Whether or not you are a vegan, I recommend these shoes as comfortable and stylish. To find out more, or to buy, see the NAK website here.
Grey Fox,
ReplyDeleteThe ethics of NAK are clearly comendable. Is there any experience, or do you have any thoughts, about age patina with their material as opposed to that which comes about on old leather shoes lovingly polished for years?

Thanks snapper - not sure - I would have to wear the shoes for a while - interesting question.
