A little while after giving up eating animals, it struck me that it was sort of hypocritical to continue wearing them.
Generally the non-leather shoes are about 60 quid plus p&p a pair, and as a consequence I only have about three pairs at any time. My current favourites are a reasonably smart tan pair, my first deviation from my "they have to be black" rule. I've now come to regard blue jeans worn with black shoes as slightly unsightly. I just can't decide whether, for me, this is a great leap forward in the stlye stakes, or simply the first steps on the road that will see me dressing all in beige within five years.
