It’s been quite a while since we’ve posted any athletic shoes. Vegans are an active bunch and need footware to accomodate their livestyles. So here are three delicious looking veg compatible athletic shoes from brands you know and trust. When it comes to sneakers you want to buy from the best. And because synthetics are so light weight and durable, more and more companies are using non leather materials in their shoes.

New Balance ‘757′ Running Shoe - $89.95
New Balance ‘WCT1003W’ Tennis Shoe - $109.95
Adidas Women’s Adifusion MC Running Shoe - $99.95

Whether it’s away from your family, towards the parties and festivities, or on the treadmill to work off the vegan cookies you’ve been munching on non stop, here are some great athletic shoes for you to do so in style.

Nike ‘Air Span 4′ Running Shoe - $79.95
Nike+ ‘Air Pegasus 2007′ Running Shoe - $95
Adidas ‘Megabounce’ Athletic Shoe - $119.95

It was big news when Stella McCartney agreed to design a line of athletic gear for Adidas. When it came out, many were frustrated with the price tag but the line continues to flourish (since her designs are adorable).

Hint: Sometimes Adidas outlets such at the one at Woodbury Commons in New York carry Stella’s designs for half the price.

So lets be happy adidas has an alternative to the kangaroo skin shoes they refuse to stop selling. Well, maybe happy is too strong a word…

Yashila - $155
Kasi - $150
Thala - $95
Sports Jacket - $350
Run Tank - $80
Women’s Ready to Sport - $225

Sometimes when you wear an athletic shoe, you don’t necessarily want to go running or do more than take a nice stroll. You want something lighter and less clunky than a typical athletic shoe that’s designed to protect your foot from high impact movements. That’s when you put on a casual, sleek everyday shoe that crosses between a sneaker and a flat.

Puma has a few nice designs that are leather free to choose from. Pair the little ballet flat with a skirt or the other two more sneaker-like sneakers with jeans for a nice casual outing.

Tia Wn’s - $63.95
La Bamba Wn’s - $78.95
Cell Therid Wn’s - $93.95

New Balance knows it’s stuff when it comes to designing shoes for athletes. And lucky for us, they also make a ton of veg sneakers. So you can keep your body healthy and happy and look out for animals at the same time.

And now you don’t have to look upon your treadmill neighbor with envy. You too can own a nice pair of sneakers. No matter if you like a more conservative sneaker, or prefer a flash of color, new balance has a shoe for you.

M1O24 - $99.99
MR1061 - $119.99
WR8507 - $99.99
