Do non-leather, non-fabric shoes make feet sweat?

I’ve decided to explore vegitarianism as well as veganism and ease my way into them both by limiting my meat intake, as well as being conscious of the materials of clothes, shoes, and accessories I purchase. I remember someone once telling me to either wear leather shoes or those made of fabric because all other artificial materials such as rubber, pleather, etc does not allow skin to breathe and makes feet sweat. I was wondering if this is true at least to an extent. What types of shoes do vegans generally wear, material wise?

    Vegans wear Birkenstock sandals, with socks, and nothing else.

    To the best of my feeble knowledge, if it won’t breathe the your feet will float! AND big ole blisters will appear rather suddenly. If it’s summer time you may choose open shoes like slaps or thongs. Or opt for synthetic material shoes. Check out some of the travel and backpacking stores. I’m not a veggie-head, and I wear Vasque Sun Downers when I’m out and about. I’ve used my Downers around the world several times from jungles to snow capped peaks, and never had a problem. I’m on my 4th pair now.

    I wear chucks…with everything. I have like, 10 pairs and three pairs of skimmers. I only have one pair of other shoes…they’re vinyl and they never make my feet sweat but I rarely wear them because they have 4" heels and I’m already 5′7. But really, chucks go with everything…skirts, dress pants, jeans, whatever you feel like wearing…just not a formal though lol.

    So what if your feet sweat? Sweaty feet on a lady are irresistibly sexy. Sorry, don’t take this the wrong way. I just want to point out that it’s not as reviled as one may assume.
