NPS/Solovair - British leather (and some vegan) shoes and boots, including 'doc marten' style Derby boots (they used to manufacture 'Dr. Martens by Solovair' boots).

ECCo is indeed Danish but have gotten a lot of heat for not pulling out of Russia when they invated Ukraine

Sange goes for a few other Danish companies who contributed inue to do business with Russia, including Rockwool, and Novo Nordisk among others

Not Ecco: they continue to do business in Russia. For my money and conscience, I’d buy American shoes before buying from them.

Freet Barefoot - barefoot style shoes made in the UK, often out of recycled material, and known to be quite durable for the money.

[–] hadek@lemmings.world 2 points 9 hours ago

Very intresting, never heard of freet or barefoot shoes. Kinda reminds me of what I love so much about my knitted sneakers in the summer.
