Virón is done being polite, so it's revolutionising footwear (and perhaps even the fashion industry at large) with its plant-based, sustainable range of shoes. Take the
1997 boots: they look a lot like your favourite Chelsea style, but are made from conscious fabrics to differentiate them, with vegan suede uppers made from recycled PET bottles, and a recycled rubber sole (which is super-chunky, of course). Just to underscore their mission, the composition is printed on the side.
