Bourgeois Boheme is an ethical fashion company in London that specializes in creating vegan shoes for men and women. Their stylish designs include an array of colours, patterns and materials, ranging from canvas sneakers to faux suede peep-toe sling backs. They have everything from brogue shoes to canvas boots, all of which are vegan (containing no animal products), eco-friendly and promise to offer fair employment, both in terms of working conditions and wages.
"Ethical sourcing is pivotal to Bourgeois Boheme," the website explains. "This extends to minimising our impact on the environment and collaborating with manufacturers who endorse ethical working conditions."
Honouring the triple bottom line, the "fashion with compassion" concept was created by founder Alicia Lai in 2005, who launched the inaugural line in 2007. Since then Bourgeois Boheme has expanded to include a core collection, limited edition capsule collection and an accessories collection.
