Cri De Coeur


ETYMOLOGY:French cri de cœur : cri, cry + de, of + cœur, heart.

A gorgeous new shoe line that boasts an extraordinary feature- it's completely vegan. Yes- those booties? sueded microfiber! Those crazy gladiator wedges? Canvas! With a rubber composite sole that has adorable faux treads. Designer Gina Ferraraccio, a stylish herbivore who was unimpressed by the lackluster offerings of leather-free shoes on the market, decided to take matters into her own hands and craft this totally stylish, totally wearable, and completely environmentally conscious line. We couldn't be happier! PLUS- for each pair sold, Cri De Coeur will plant a tree, through a partnership with carbonfund.org.
