The Best UK Vegan Clothing Brands For Men & Women | 2024

Looking for the best vegan clothing brands? Here are 15 stylish and sustainable vegan and cruelty-free UK brands for men and women, proving that having a vegan-friendly wardrobe doesn’t mean you have to compromise on your sense of style.

With more than a third of people in the UK interested in becoming vegan, the number of people adopting plant-based diets has soared in recent years.

And with this rise in the number of people becoming vegan, many clothing brands are now following suit to adapt to changing preferences. The number of 100% vegan clothing brands and brands offering vegan-friendly clothing that is made without animal-based fabrics such as wool or leather is following a similar rise in popularity.

The Vegan Clothing Fabrics To Avoid

The problem is that many vegan clothing ranges available from high street retailers are made of synthetic materials or conventionally grown cotton. These are harmful to the environment, and to human and animal life.

This includes fabrics such as:

• Standard cotton
• BCI Cotton
• Polyester
• Polyamide
• PVC
• PU
• Acrylic
• Elastane (including lycra and spandex)
• Nylon

Most of these fabrics are derived from non-renewable fossil fuels, such as oil, which contribute to climate change. Meanwhile, conventional cotton is grown using pesticides which are harmful to growers, pickers, local communities, and wildlife. BCI cotton can also be grown using pesticides.

The good news is that if you are looking to build a vegan wardrobe, then you no longer need to choose between animal rights, quality or sustainability. The increasing demand for sustainable and ethical vegan clothing has seen a plethora of brands step up and offer truly innovative and ethical options.

BAM isn’t a wholly vegan clothing brand but is worth mentioning here as the vast majority of BAM’s range of sustainable activewear is made without animal products.

As well as selling seriously soft and comfortable activewear, BAM takes sustainability seriously. It has set ambitious goals that it wants to achieve by 2030 across every element of its supply chain. This includes zero waste to landfill, zero pollution, and zero water waste.

Thought

Budget: £ – £££

Thought (available at John Lewis) isn’t an entirely vegan-friendly brand, but with 164 items of women’s vegan clothing available at the time of writing, it’s well worth more than a passing mention.

Thought’s approach to ethical fashion is one to be commended. The brand uses only certified natural and recycled fibres and fabrics and makes its clothes ethically.

Thought also makes its clothes from start to finish in the same country. This prevents them from being shipped from country to country, for example, to add buttons or zips, which is a common practice within the fashion industry.

MUD Jeans

Budget: £££

Caters for: Women (W25 / L30 – W33 / L32)

Fabrics used: Organic cotton and recycled denim

MUD Jeans – available in the UK at Content – makes 100% vegan jeans from organic cotton and recycled denim. This helps to avoid waste and cuts down on water and CO₂ use. 

At the moment, its jeans contain 40% recycled denim. However, keep an eye out as MUD aim to launch the first jeans made from 100% post-consumer recycled denim. 

Rather than washing the jeans to create the wash, MUD uses innovative ozone and laser processes. This cleverly reduces the amount of water used to manufacture a pair of jeans by up to 75%. This step also helps to reduce water pollution.

What’s also to love about MUD, is that jeans labels are printed without the use of leather. This means that MUD’s entire jeans range is cruelty-free and suitable for vegans.

What’s more, MUD takes back your old jeans once you are done. Here MUD will resell them if they are in good condition. If not, MUD will recycle them by blending them with organic cotton to create new jeans for a more circular approach to denim.
