Our “Planet� rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate NAE Vegan Shoes “Good�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It uses some lower-impact materials including recycled materials.
  • To minimise waste, it reuses some of its textile offcuts.
  • It produces long-lasting products.
  • It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
  • Its packaging is recyclable.

Workers� rights are central to our “People� rating, which assess brands� policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate NAE Vegan Shoes “Good�. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • Its final production stage happens in Portugal and Spain, medium risk countries for labour abuse.
  • It partly traces its supply chain including the final and some of the second production stages.
  • There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers rights. 
  • It visits its suppliers regularly.

Brands� animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals� rating. Here we rate NAE Vegan Shoes “Great�. PETA listed the brand as vegan.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate NAE Vegan Shoes “Good� overall.
