I don't see how a vegan diet should have a big effect on your choice of clothing. I personally eat vegan, but I purchase nice shoes, regardless of the materials. As long as there are meat eaters out there, there will be byproduct. What's the harm in using something that is going to be there whether you eat cruelty -free or not?

The problem is that people just cheap out on pleather. Pleather, in general, is cheaper, but there are a couple of really good mills in Italy making some great vegan leathers that brands like McCartney and this one shoe brand that I can't remember. April 77 also does great non-pleather, but leather-like textiles, too.

Vegetarianism is a dietary choice, veganism is a lifestyle choice that is complex and all encompassing. Unfortunately its a blanket term that tends to set people apart between two extreme opinions.
I tend to pick my veggie battles when it comes to purchasing non-food items. One of the more important convos I've had on this board dicussed the idea of buying vegan, slave factory items VERSUS 'ethically' sustainable leather items sourced and produced in economically viable means.
Personally I choose the latter.

Most of those vegetables you eat are produced by the same companies that abuse animals. Organic and sustainable farming often relies on animals to produce anything. The only way to truly be vegan is to live off the grid and grow your own food.

Vegan's can't eat meat, dairy, honey, or eggs; they can't wear leather, wool or silk; they can't own pets; they can't drink alcohol (filtration systems aren't vegan); they can't eat anything where animals had some role in the process (tilling the land, fertilizing, etc.); I'm fairly certain no one can actually be a vegan.

not all of them. here's a list of what alcohols are and aren't vegan, if you're interested: http://www.barnivore.com/

you're making a broad generalisation about human diets. thing is, they historically vary dramatically across the globe. We can naturally eat meat, and have in our evolutionary past, but we have also (in recent years for most of the population) eaten a diet of nearly entirely non-meat based foods.

Just because we have/ can doesn't always mean we should.

Also, infanticide is common in many mammals and has been documented throughout human history, and no doubt in our early evolution could have been an important dominance tact.

"you can't be vegan and eat meat" is not the same sentence as "vegans can't eat meat"
