Hello from MooShoes!

We know—we’ve been away for a while. No, we haven't just been on one long summer vacation…ok, maybe that’s a little bit of it. But we’ve also been working on a bunch of new stuff that we think you’re really going to like.

New shoes, new boots, and a new Web site are all on the horizon, so stay tuned! To get ready for all that though, we’re purging ourselves of lots of older inventory which means… (drum roll please) a huge, we mean REALLY HUGE Summer Sale. So now’s the time to stock up loads of shoes, boots, and other fun things at super-discounted prices.

VAUTE COUTURE POP-UP
It’s been one hot summer, but if you’re like us, you can't help yourself—you already got fall on the brain. So don't miss Vaute Couture's Pop-Up Shop, happening at MooShoes from Sept. 11th-14th. Don't go another year without one of these amazing coats. If this winter’s anything like last winter, you’re going to need it. For more details contact sales@vautecouture.com.

DISCOUNTS
On top of the Super Summer Sale, we're also offering a discount on your next purchase. For all purchases made between now and August 21st, you’ll get 5% off by using the code shoepurge5. Spend $150 or more and use the code shoepurge10 for 10% off of your purchase.

Thanks!
We'll be checking in again soon, hopefully with a whole new look.

Hello from MooShoes!

Although the fashion world tells you that you better start looking for your summer wear in January, we at MooShoes know that many of us wait until now to get our sandals. That's why we're keeping plenty of warm weather styles available from Novacas, Olsenhaus, Big Buddha, Simple, and Madden Girl.

ROAM IF YOU WANT TO
You don't need us to tell you this, but summer is the time to get yourself outside and—whatever your favorite outdoor activity might be—we've got just the right footwear option for you. Going for a hike? Get yourself a pair of Snowdon or Veggie Trekker Boots from Vegetarian Shoes. Beach time? Maybe it is time for pair of Flipee from Simple or Water Divas from Jambu. Get outta that smelly gym! Time to run outside, so try one of the amazing options from Montrail. Time to relax with a BBQ or picnic? Then it sounds like potato salad and a pair of new sneakers are on the menu. See all the great options from Saucony and Bensimon.

WFAS EVENTS
Speaking of the great outdoors, Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary has two amazing events coming up—on June 23rd, a Rooftop Party in Brooklyn. Tickets are going fast! Get 'em while you can. Then WFAS is holding its annual July Jamboree July 2nd-3rd. Get outta the city and get your jam on!

BRAVE GENTLEMAN
And there's more exciting news on the shoe front—The Discerning Brute and Novacas are collaborating on a brand new line of shoes. For a great deal, pre-order by June 30th.

WORLD'S GREATEST BOSSES? US!
That's right, MooShoes is hiring! Find out more here.

Carol Adams Book Signing at MooShoes on Thursday, Septmber 16th

noreply@blogger.com (Moo Shoes) — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 14:34:00 +0000

I was a student at the University of Michigan at the time when one of my fellow MARS (Michigan Animal Rights Society) members introduced me to the Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol Adams.

I was already vegan because the idea of eating animal and harming animals was so appallingly sad to me, I just couldn't understand how the rest of the world didn't see it the same way.
As I continued to meet people that didn't feel the same way as me, I realized it was time to read up more on the issues and find other defenses of veganism other than Meat is Murder (even though this is the argument that I still find to be the most convincing)

So I borrowed my friend's tattered copy and I read it cover to cover. I was so enthralled by it and couldn't wait to share all my new information with everyone. I found a way to include The Sexual Politics of Meat as a reference to almost every paper I wrote during my college career as it seemed so relevant to everything I was learning.

It was a couple of months/5 bake sales/3 university grant applications later that MARS brought Carol Adams to speak at the University. Lots of speakers were brought to campus. If you wanted to, there was probably a speaker's event to attend every night of the year. The event we had with Carol Adams was attended by over 200 people which is an amazing number especially since MARS probably only had about 14 active members.

So it is a great honor to me that MooShoes has had the opportunity to host book signings with Carol Adams. It is a really great honor that we now get to host a book signing celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the Sexual Politics of Meat.

So please join us on Thursday, September 16th, at 7pm at MooShoes for this event.
Carol Adams will be speaking and books will be available for purchase.

If you’re not ready to think about boots yet, how about pumps? These pumps have really taken it up a notch, with unique details and loads of fun colors.

We might have to rename the store MooBags with the plethora of purses, puches, and petite portmanteaus we have now, but we know you love variety and we’ve got even more variety on the way. We’ve got tons of new styles from Big Buddha. From messengers to shoulder bags to clutches and even some that are all in one, we’ve got all your bag-based needs covered.

Hello from MooShoes!

Even though we’re working through some record high temperatures here in NYC, we know it’s never too soon to gear up for fall. We have SO MANY great new shoes on the horizon…but more about that in a couple of weeks. For now, our sales and clearance section is where you want to be. We’ve put a ton of stuff on sale in order to make room for all the new goods, so bargain hunters—NOW IS THE TIME TO GET YOUR SHOP ON! All summer wear is now on sale and, with plenty more hot days to look forward to, it’s still a great time to sandal shop. Choose from loads of great styles while supplies last.

But, since we’re constantly getting brand new stuff, we would be amiss not to mention a couple of items that have just hit our shelves. We’ve got bags from a brand new bag line, Miss Gustto.
Also, in response to an OVERWHELMING amount of requests for the Desert Boot from Vegetarian Shoes, and in an effort to continue to be your personal vegan shoe genie, we’ve just put a new batch of the boots out on our store shelves. Get them while they last! You have two vegan shoe wishes left.

In event news, Mercy For Animals will be screening their award-winning documentary, Fowl Play, at the New York International Film Festival this Sunday, July 25th at 6pm. Fowl Play takes viewers on an unforgettable journey behind the closed doors of some of the country’s largest egg production facilities and graphically illustrates the heartbreaking plight of laying hens, condemned to lives crowded inside file-drawer-sized cages.

HELP SNOOP!Finally, wondering about that cutie at the top of the page? That's Snoop! He's a 2-year-old Chihuahua and let us tell you, he is a charmer.

Hello from MooShoes!Are you in the mood for something new? We have tons of new styles from some new brands (well at least new to us) If you're a lover of shoes, there's no way John Fleuvog has escaped your radar. They have finally come out with a vegan line, so shoe enthusiasts, lust no longer. Your day has come. All of the shoes are made in Portugal and feature the unique traits and characteristics that have made John Fleuvog such a well-known brand for so many years. SPRING SPRUNGAs you may have noticed, spring is finally upon us, so kick back with some casual classic canvas kicks from Bensimon. Choose from a slip-on or a lace-up, but choose something quick, because these are a must have for the warm weather. Just ask our staff at MooShoes, who are sporting them like crazy lately.GET YOUR COPY OF GRISTLEAn information-packed, lively, and informative little guide, Gristle is for the growing number of people—from omnivores to vegans—who are thinking twice about the consequences of our industrial factory-farming system of raising animals for food. Multi-platinum musician Moby and leading food policy activist and expert Miyun Park have brought together fifteen of the country’s leading voices on this issue—an eclectic group from such diverse backgrounds as farming, workers' rights activism, professional athletics, science, environmental sustainability, food business, and animal welfare advocacy—who together eloquently lay out how and why industrial animal agriculture unnecessarily harms workers, communities, the environment, our health, our wallets, and animals.
