GUNAS NEW YORK Launches 100% Animal-Friendly Footwear

New York, New York, August 3, 2016 (Newswire.com) - GUNAS launches a capsule 100% vegan shoe line to extend their brand’s reach in the non-leather luxury goods market. The iconic and America’s first designer vegan handbag brand has partnered with an all vegan owned and operated artisan studio in India to manufacture their line of cruelty-free, high comfort and stylish footwear.

Vegan lifestyle and health consciousness is on the rise and GUNAS is at the forefront of expanding this awareness into fashion. “We’ve experienced a lot of excitement and support from the vegan and vegetarian community about starting a shoe line. Our fans love the handbags and wanted shoes that followed a similar aesthetic as our bag collection” said Sugandh, the founder and creative mind behind the brand. “My ultimate goal is to see the #gunasgirl dressed head to toe in our 100% cruelty-free designs.” Adding a shoe line seems like a natural fit and evolution of making GUNAS into a lifestyle brand. 

"We've experienced a lot of excitement and support from the vegan and vegetarian community about starting a shoe line. Our fans love the handbags and wanted shoes that followed a similar aesthetic as our bag collection" said Sugandh, the founder and creative mind behind the brand.
