I'm really trying to embrace sustainability when it comes to my wardrobe, but it feels like I'm constantly having to replace a pair of $30 shoes. Too much rain or an unexpected day outdoors always causes irreversible damage to the fabric and glue holding my favorite pair of sneakers or sandals together.
To cut down on my consumption of fast fashion, I'm finally letting myself invest in quality shoes. And instead of worrying about them becoming dirty or damaged (or having to replace them), I'm dedicated to making them last for years. This means learning exactly how to wash shoes, no matter what the material, and getting to know exactly what's going into each pair I pick.
