Monrow Shoes Opens 50th Store to make cruelty-free vegan footwear accessible to the masses

January 4th, 2023

If you’re contemplating switching to vegan shoes from leather ones, then perhaps it’s time to fully understand what vegan shoes are. To begin with, anything labelled as vegan denotes that no animals were injured in the production of the item. In this instance, vegan shoes are made without the usage of any animal ingredients. You don't have to be a vegetarian by nature to purchase them, either. You ought to try them if you are concerned about the environment.

And on this note, Monrow, a high-end domestically aware women's footwear brand is celebrating a new milestone by opening its 50th location at Shoppers Stop, a multi-brand retail outlet. The brand specializes in creating items that are chemical-free, vegan, and free of animal testing.
