Clarks Originals launches its first-ever vegan Desert Boot shoes.

Put your best foot forward as Clarks Originals launches its first-ever vegan versions of its classic Wallabee and Desert Boot shoes. Available in neutral hues including beige, brown and black, the brand’s iconic Desert Boot and cult classic

Wallabee have been reinvented with vegan-friendly uppers, linings, and rubber crepe soles.

The Clark’s website said

“You asked. We listened. Meet the all-new Wallabee and Desert Boot, our two most loved profiles carefully crafted in Portugal with non-animal derivative materials for all the style with none of the leather.

An ethical update dedicated to a vegan lifestyle.”Both the vegan Desert Boots and Wallabee shoes are available now from Clarks priced at £120. Head to the website and look for the leaf symbol that indicates which styles are available with vegan materials. Moreover, Clarks has even included exclusive fobs and heel stamps with a leaf design that clearly indicates which shoes are vegan.

Clark’s Originals shoes are synonymous with Jamaican culture and have been engrained in island life for almost 60 years. According to Clarks, these timeless classics have been worn by ‘revolutionaries, free thinkers, and counter-culture icons for generations.’

Lush Advent Calendar

We know it’s only September but festive updates are coming through as companies reveal their Advent calendars. Fans of the brand may remember that in the first year these calendars were released, only 500 were made. Now the sought after countdown to Christmas promises a much wider availability, with it landing online on August 26 and being available in stores from September 23. It's filled with 25 vegan-friendly products, meaning there is an item to open up on Christmas Day too.

The gorgeous trunk has a midnight wonderland theme designed by Sally Kelly and can be reused after you've gotten all of your products out. They'll last for longer than just December, with a new shampoo bar coming with a cork pot that can be used to store your shampoo and any future bars you get once you've used your Christmas one up. There are six exclusive products that you can only get in the calendar and four past favourites will also be included. There's six bubble bars, including the retro favourite Christmas Penguin, spiced Cinnamon Roll bar and exclusive Kris Mouse bubble bar. The other three are Christmas classics: Candy Cane reusable bubble, Sleepy bubble bar and North Pole bubble bar. It doesn't stop there though, with seven bath bombs you can indulge throughout December - Sleepy has finally came out in a bath bomb and it's only available in Christmas gifts. There's also some lovely themed bath bombs with Sleepy bear, Orange Pop, Twilight, Cinders, Thundersnow and Hey Hollywood. For scrubbing yourself clean there are plenty of ways with three shower gels (Merry Christmas, Jolly and Plum Duff) as well as two soaps (Polar Bear and Baked Alaska) and a Golden Pear body scrub.
