Not only is it a little bit more complicated for me to shoe shop b/c I don't consume leather, but I am also a size 10 which can be tricky. But its not as hard as people might think to have a wide variety of really cute vegan kicks, pumps, sandals, running shoes, moccasins, boots and wedges.
I have ordered several of my shoes online here: at mooshoes and I love this online store because I can choose from anything and everything they have to offer. And they have a lot of cute styles, not just a bunch of hemp gladiator sandals or strangely shaped clog/sneakers that some vegan shoe makers seem to think is appealing... to someone maybe.
I also love keds. canvas and cute, timeless and go with everything casual.
Chucks are vegan though I never thought they were comfortable so only have owned one pair in my life. Also Nike now owns converse... choose your own battles.
A lot of cheap shoe stores also offer a large variety of vegan shoes (all man made materials, no leather, wool or silk), but depending on your moral stance as far as spending money at Payless, Target, Wal Mart, you may choose to go the more expensive route and invest in a mooshoes purchase.
I don't see the point in spending more than $100 on shoes personally, but I like the look of Natalie Portman's vegan shoe line, and of course there is always Stella McCartney.
