Glutton for compassion!

Lame title, I know. Whatever.

For the past week I've been taking a course in beautiful Nelson, BC, and have been lucky enough to find some vegan fare. I don't know how to a proper review, and don't much feel like trying. It's been a long week. Here's some basic info:

Hello.

Over the past couple weeks I've been hounding skate shoe companies about which of their shoes are vegan friendly. Not ONE of the 10 companies I emailed have replied.

But, with that said, Emerica has posted their list of vegan colorways for 2009:

In the Emerica Spring 2009 line, the following shoes are made of all-synthetic materials. No slaughterhouse by-products here!

AR Slim - Black Dark Grey Grey
Francis Barrier Kult - Black Black White
Hsu - Olive White Black
Laced - Charcoal
Laced - Light Blue
Laced - White
Nailer - Burgundy White
Spanky - White Print
Transist - Black Charcoal
Transist - Black White White
Transist - Grey Blue
Transist - Purple White

I can't wait to get these bad boys:




I will keep trying with the other companies, which include: Fallen, Dekline, Vox, Vans, to name a few. And will let you all know as soon as I find anything out.

Plagiarism? Not quite.

Hello everyone.

My name is Shane. I  live in BC, Canada. I'm about 20 years of age. I skateboard, play doublebass, and watch horror movies. But most importantly, I'm trying to become vegan. 

As some people may notice, I've borrowed the concept for this blog from Hunter Burgan, who often promised something similar, but never followed through. I intend to build upon his objective, and share my journey into veganism with the world. Along the way I hope to help others make the transition to a cruelty-free lifestyle.

For now, I'll leave you with this:

I'll be in touch.
