Vegan Clothing Brands in the UK: Our Rated List

How to read this list

Every brand below cleared both of our gates when we last checked it: no animal-derived material in its current range, and no evidence of animal testing. That is the part of the question most lists stop at. We go on to score each one out of 100 on the evidence it publishes, using the same rubric for every brand, and we link to the full assessment so you can check our working.

Two things to keep in mind.

• A low score is not a warning about animals. It means the brand has not yet published, or shown us, the paperwork: a written whole-range declaration, a testing declaration that covers its suppliers, a factory list, named material mills. Forty-five of the hundred points depend on evidence only the brand holds, which is why desk research alone rarely gets a brand past 50.
• No brand holds our Good badge yet. The badge needs 85 points, both gates clear and a completed evidence audit, and no audit is finished.

Scores are as of 10 October 2026. The brand pages are always the current version.

Shoes and trainers

• NAE Vegan Shoes: 47. The highest score on the site. The Portuguese maker specifies its shoes down to the last component (Piñatex, AppleSkin, recycled tennis-ball soles), holds a vegan mark and publishes dated reports. What it has not given us is a signed testing declaration or a factory list.
• Will's Vegan Store: 30. A material table for every piece it sells, including Goodyear-welted Oxfords made in Portugal. It has no verified vegan mark, and its published timeline stops in 2021.
• Ethletic: 20. Fairtrade canvas trainers, vegan since 1998, and the one brand in our latest round whose PETA-Approved Vegan listing we could confirm in PETA's own register. It names its factory and cotton source, but several product pages give no composition at all.
• Native Shoes: 15. Light EVA shoes from Vancouver whose FAQ says that "not a single hair nor hide" has ever been used. It names Braskem as the maker of its bio-based foam, but UK buyers can only get it through Farfetch or Amazon.
• ROMBAUT: 5. Paris-based designer footwear, "100% vegan" since 2013. The statement earns points. Almost nothing else is published to score.
• Vegetarian Shoes: 5. Brighton's vegan shoemaker since 1990, with over 200 styles made in the UK and Europe. A real pioneer with a thin paper trail: it names its materials but not who makes them, and publishes no testing or glue declaration.

Coats and outerwear

• Save The Duck: 32. Italian padded jackets made without feathers, fur or wool since 2012. Component-level composition on every product page, a written "always animal-free" commitment, B Corp status, and repair and resale schemes. It publishes no testing declaration and names its factories by city only. UK orders can attract import duties.
• Will's Vegan Store also makes a pea coat in cotton and recycled polyester, cut in the shape you would expect from wool.

Basics, underwear and socks

• Plainandsimple: 33. Organic cotton essentials made from one fibre, with cotton thread, corozo-nut buttons and rubber waistbands, so they can be recycled or composted. It names its yarn mill and garment factory in India and takes back any piece, at any age. It says nothing about animals either way, so its pass rests on what it makes.
• Stand4 Socks: 20. Manchester socks from a B Corp that gives a pair to someone homeless for every pair sold. Every sock on sale is cotton, bamboo or synthetic, with the percentages on each page. Its impact page mentions Responsible Wool Standard wool without saying where, which we have asked about.
• Bare Kind: 27. Bamboo socks from a B Corp that gives 10 per cent of profits to the animal each pair is named after. Composition is on every page, but factories are named only by country.
• Boody: 20. Bamboo-viscose underwear, socks and loungewear, with a register-confirmed B Corp score of 134.4. It says all its products are PETA-Approved Vegan, but we could not find it in PETA's register, and a claim that its factories are "Fair Trade certified" is one we will be asking about.
• Little Women: 15. Small-cup lingerie from Glossop, Derbyshire, with composition on every product page and little else published yet.
• Animus Physique: 15. Gym leggings and joggers with composition on every page. There is no statement about animals either way, and nothing else to score.
• aZengear: 15. Compression socks from a London gear brand. The socks are all we list.

Bags

• LaBante London: 20. Structured bags in apple leather, and the only brand in our catalogue with a published supplier code.
• Matt & Nat: 10. Accessible vegan bags in recycled materials. In 2019 the Advertising Standards Authority upheld a complaint that it had overstated the recycled content of a bag, and it has published little since that would settle the question.
• JW PEI: 0. Enormously popular, and animal-free on every one of the sixteen product pages we checked. It scores nothing because it publishes almost nothing we can verify, not even a whole-range vegan statement.

T-shirts and printed clothing

• The Spark Company: 5. Feminist and LGBT+ slogan tees, sweatshirts and beanies, which it describes as "100% vegan". That sentence is almost all it publishes.
• Chargrilled: 15. Printed cotton t-shirts and hoodies, printed to order by a Bedfordshire company trading since 2005, with composition and fabric weight on every page.

Occasionwear

• TFNC London: 0. Maxi, bridesmaid and party dresses. Everything we checked was polyester, from the satins to the velvets, but the brand publishes no composition on some pages and nothing at all about animals, so there is nothing to score.

Brands that did not make this list

Some brands you may expect to see here carry a red tag instead, because they sell wool, leather or silk: Crocs, Lucy & Yak, TALA, Veja, Stella McCartney, Thought, Gini London, PatPat, Peper Harow and Young Soles. We list their animal-free pieces with a 50-point penalty. The best-known are explained in brands you might think are vegan, and every one has its own page.

If you run one of these brands

Every brand here is being sent its assessment, with the evidence that would raise its score and an invitation to reply. We publish any response on the brand's page. If you would rather go further, the verification route explains what an audit involves. The fee pays for the audit, never for the result.
