Our notes
One of the most requested boots we've ever made — proof that certified safety footwear can be fully vegan, without cutting anything from the protection.
Made in the Dolomites to European S3 standard, this is genuine certified safety PPE. The Vibram® outsole is zoned for grip, traction, braking and stability, and the upper is abrasion- and scuff-resistant Lyliane® 3DMX vegan nubuck with Cordura® panels, built to take knocks and go off-road without you worrying about it. The sole is direct-injected onto the upper in one sealed piece so the two won't part under hard use, and it's lab-tested waterproof — sealed seams, a sealed tongue and a breathable PFC-free membrane that keeps water out while your feet breathe. For a certified boot it stays comfortable over long days and distances: a removable cushioned anatomic insole underfoot, padding around the tongue and collar, and an easy finger tab and smooth-running laces to get them on and off.
Manufactured to European S3 (S3 HRO HI CI WR SRC UNI EN ISO 20345:2012) standard — certified safety PPE workwear.
These boots do not comply with ASTM and cannot be worn in the USA as safety PPE workwear.

I love Will’s vegan, and own a few different shoes from here!
However. These I found not true to size. I tried on at home with insoles and felt ok, I thought I would be fine. But once I was out and about, I was in pain on one foot, and found out later that I’d given myself a totally black second toenail. So not right for me, but perfectly solid and well made etc, just not sure of the fitting on them.
On the plus side, they allowed me to complete a dry stone walling beginners course so it wasn’t all bad! Not sure what to do with them now though.

They do everything they say on the tin, just so happy to have access to a quality vegan safety boot!
Sturdy, strong and comfy
Quality of materials and construction is superb! They look great and are comfortable even for long hours. Extremely robust, they have already weathered a hard hit from a sharp shovel with minimal damage and I have confidence that they will last me a decade. It’s so hard to find good vegan work boots and these are the best I’ve seen!
But there is something off about the sizing, they run big!
Comfortable enough to hike in. Strong enough to kick stuff.
