I'm sporting my winter Jacket that I bought from Alternative Outfitters.
I was looking for a hot winter jacket and had a hard time finding one that was vegan. I did an internet search and came across Alternative Outfitters. It was love at first site :) (I know that was corny).
Anyway, I absolutely love the jacket I bought here. It keeps me warm in this crazy San Francisco weather. Plus, I can change it up and have a completely different look by detaching the hood. Since coming across Alternative Outfitters, I've ordered other items which are now staples in my wardrobe and which people can't believe is vegan. I'm so thankful that I've come across a boutique that's both fashionable, affordable, and espouses my belief in not exploiting animals in the name of fashion or anything else for that matter. Keep up the good work!
I just wanted to drop you a line about my great bag that I ordered this summer for the fall (I wanted to make sure that I got it). It is the green hobo bag and I just love it! It matches everything that I have you guys are the best living in the Washington DC area I can find a lot of Veggie places to eat but not a lot of Veg clothing and bags and being a bag freak I need all the help I can get Thank you all for being around everyone loves my bag and they all want to know where I got it they are shocked when I tell them.....
Thank you

Hi, I'd just like to say thank you for my wonderful new shoes! They're exactly what I wanted and I'm completely in love with them. I can't believe they arrived so soon as well. Very smart, will definitely be doing business with you in the future!
P.S. Good price too!

Hi! I just placed my very first order with your boutique & I wanted to say THANK YOU for the amazing service. I ordered on Friday & had the lovely beauties I ordered in my hot little hands on Tuesday. In the world of online ordering that is practically unheard of! I adore everything that I received and have already gotten compliments! I wanted to express to you my great appreciation for stumbling upon a site like yours. As a fairly new vegan I still am unsure about certain things & it is so nice to know that I can order anything you have for sale with good conscience! I will definitely be telling my friends (both vegan and non-vegan alike) about your wonderful shop.
I look forward to ordering again!

Hello!
I just wanted to send a short note to say thank you. I have never ordered shoes online before so I was a little wary about the entire process. Your descriptions online made it much easier. I just received the boots I ordered and I am impressed with how quickly they came and I absolutely LOVE them. Rarely do I buy a product that I feel compelled to thank the company for... but thank you very much for making stylish, responsible shoes and for making the entire process so easy. Your website has been bookmarked :).
Happy Holidays,
Heather

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate having a website like this. I recently became vegan and struggled to find cute shoes. I love everything on your website, but I especially adore the short camel color 'ugg like' boot I received today. They fit perfectly, are so comfortable and better than I even imagined. Thank you so much.
From your loyal and pleased customer.

Kim, Wow I can't believe you went through all that trouble just to see if my calves would fit into the boots. I am so impressed. I truly appreciate it. I am so ordering these boots. I am taking your advice and going for the 8.5. I cannot thank you enough. You have made a customer for life. If I ever have any questions I will be sure to only work with you.

Hi Alternative Outfitters,
Just got the vegan Andy Warhol wallet and it rocks! Thank you for the fast service as my 12 year old turns 13 this Friday and I needed that for a gift! Now it can hold the nice pay-ahead Mastercard he was wanting! :)
Keep up the great work.

Dear Melissa,
I just wanted to say a very BIG thank you for all of your help. I am SO happy with the Sugar Shoes and the Funky Vegan Belt and the Seatbelt Belts that I received from you. You were so patient with me to help sort out the sizing and I really appreciate it - it was worth it because they are great. I haven't worn them out yet - they are too pretty to step in the winter puddles with, but I can't wait! I will walk around Sydney with vegan and style pride! So, thank you for your help, for having so many GREAT vegan products and for shipping to Australia where we just don't get as much cool vegan stuff.
Thanks,
Tamara

Hi, my order arrived yesterday, and I just wanted to say a giant THANK YOU!!!! The shoes are fantastic and the cell phone holder too. I am very happy with my purchases; it is great to have such a wonderful resource for cruelty-free items and especially good-looking non-leather shoes, which are very hard to find in Houston, Texas. You guys are awesome!

I got my order today and am just writing to tell you how happy I am with it !! The quality far exceeded my expectations. When I decided to become totally vegan I thought I was destined to a dowdy, plain, or just plain ugly, fashion existence..BUT... then I found you guys!! The answer to my prayers! Your website is so user-friendly and your delivery time was so fast! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.

Hey. Just wanted to drop a note to say thank you for my recent order. As the only vegan living in Louisiana (post/pre Katrina) there aren't many options. The way you handled the order (even after I typed in the wrong zip code), the quick shipment and the packaging was beyond my expectations. Even though it looked as though UPS ran over the package, it was "in tact" and deliverable. I truly appreciate you being there. There haven't been many bright spots in the last year, who would have thought a pair of boots and a belt could make a grown woman so happy. Thanks again.

I bought the Mens Baker Shoes (slip on) in brown a few months ago and they are the MOST comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I have never found a better vegan shoe. I have been wearing them everyday, and need a new pair in black.

Just wanted to let you know that I just walked outside for coffee for about 15 minutes and received 2 separate compliments on 2 separate items that I bought from your site (a Chinese Laundry handbag and black peek-a-boo shoes) and I told both people about your website. Thanks for providing great veggie products!
Melissa

I just want to commend your company not only for offering cruelty-free products but for the user-friendly on-line shopping experience. To top it off, Jackie Horrick was kind enough to contact me to recommend changing my shipping option from UPS 2-day to ground service since I would receive the package in about the same time. This saved me $26! I will definitely be shopping with you again. I will also tell my friends about your site and products (and great service). Thanks for a great experience.

I just received a package today of products that I recently ordered online from your store. I was really nervous about ordering products on line... I was so impressed with the quality of the products I received. Thank you so much!! I will continue to shop at your site and I cannot wait to tell all my vegan friends about it!!

I just wanted to express my appreciation for your site and for the way you treat your customers. I placed an order last night and changed my mind on an item in the morning. After calling and talking with the friendly rep I was able to change my order, not all companies out there are so flexible. I have brought several items for your store and have gotten many compliments; you carry fun shoes, at a great price and great quality. I wish you sold kids shoes; it is so hard to find good shoes for children that aren't made of leather! You will have a devoted customer in me!
Thanks,

I received my order today and I would just like to thank you. It came very quickly and very nicely packaged and all, and the shoes that i ordered are perfect so I just wanted to say thanks for making such good products and having such an organized business. I will definitely be ordering from you again and recommending you to all of my friends. Thanks again!

Hi there, I recently purchased your Black Penelope Tweed & Faux Suede Vegan Pumps, and I just wanted to write to let you know that I absolutely love them! They're both comfortable and incredibly attractive. I wholeheartedly support your mission of selling cruelty free products, and I look forward to more purchases in the future.

Dear Alternative Outfitters,
I would just like to take the time to say thanks! I ordered a pair of the black Aspens. And I love them!
Also, unless I am mistaken - Alternative Outfitters had the best deal on the black Aspens, that I could find.
I have already recommended you to a few friends. And I would be happy to do business with you again in the future! :)
Thanks for everything!

Just wanted you to know that I LOVE shopping on your site!
You have such **cute** things, I especially love the shoes and handbags! I bought a pair of Sugar slip-on canvas shoes at the beginning of summer, thinking I would wear them a few times. I have worn those shoes OUT! I LOVE THEM! A great selection and cruelty free!
I WILL be shopping with you again; your customer service and shipping are also outstanding!
Thanks so much!!!

You guys ROCK!
I have made my first purchase from Alternative Outfitters. I absolutely love the black Fetter Vegan Kicks. I bought them hoping they would be comfortable enough for my upcoming trip to Europe. They are beyond comfortable. In fact, they are so comfortable; I used them today for my lunch workout of 37 flights of stairs and my feet feel fine!!! Thank you so much for offering such a wonderful cruelty free product!
Kind Regards,

Dear Alternative Outfitters:
I wanted to write and let you know how pleased I am with mytransaction with Alternative Outfitters. I loved both the products received, which were shipped to me very promptly and packaged very well. Thanks so much for being around, for being great, and formaking me the cutest-dressed vegan on my block.

Dear Alternative Outfitters:
Over the course of the last month, I have ordered a number of products from your company, and I cannot tell you how pleased I am with your products and service! I am an experienced Internet customer, as I live in Dallas where "vegan" is a four-letter word, and I haven't dealt with a company with faster and more friendly service!
There are very few online retailers (only amazon.com comes to mind) that I've had as good of an experience with as you.

Hello,
I am celebrating my 1 year anniversary of being VEGAN and I never thought I would have so many CUTE things to choose from in the way of shoes, bags, etc. etc. and every time I get your email with new selections, I end up ordering something (or almost every time!)!!! STOP!!!! : ) I just wanted to tell you that it's wonderful to know that there's a hip site (AlternativeOutfitters.com) out there for us to buy fun and stylish things! You may end up making me go broke, but I will be stylish and cruelty free! THANK YOU!!!! : )

Hi. I just wanted to write to tell you that this has become one of my favorite vegan shopping sites...It's so hard to find animal friendly/fashionable shoes, but now I know where to turn. When my friends and family like my vegan shoes from your site it helps to show them that vegetarian is an easy switch to make, with little fashion sacrifice. Thanks for making my vegan life a little easier.

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I ordered the Cutie Shoes in pink and I luuuuv them! I didn't think I'd be comfortable wearing such girly type flats, but I was wrong. Also, I like how you included the pink tissue packing. I was able to reuse all of the shipping materials for Valentine's Day gift wrap.
Congrats on your Proggy Award from PETA. I saw Ingrid Newkirk speak in SF tonight at a book signing for, Making Kind Choices, her new book. She's an amazing speaker and her book is very inspiring. She devotes quite a few pages to kind choices in clothing, shoes in particular. Have you considered selling her book on your site?
You guys are the best.

Hi, I just received the black vegan boot and i LOVE them!!!!! You should allow for people to put reviews up for items they have purchased because I would rave about how comfortable and gorgeous these are!! Well worth $35. And I love your web design, very fun to shop. Thanks!

I recently ordered your Ugg style vegan boots, with the embroidered flowers, in camel color and I could not be more pleased. They fit really well and the picture on the website does not do them justice, they are really cute...I've already had several compliments on them. You definitely have a return customer.
Thanks again,

I want to take this opportunity to tell you how pleased I am with my order of boots and bag. The quality is excellent, they are just lovely, and your prices are great! Moreover, I am pleased that my order was shipped quickly, expertly packaged and, to my surprise, included a free sample bottle of lavender body wash! Thank you for excellent, professional service and products!

Hello,
I just felt I had to write to you and say I bought your vegan ugg style boots and wore them today in the most frigid day we've had in New York this winter (8 degrees with loads of snow on the ground) and they kept my feet completely toasty and warm! What a fantastic boot! Cruelty free and really keeps you warm. Your store is just the best and I will be a frequent buyer in the future! Keep up the good work!

Hello, My daughter, Allison, ordered a pair of Pom Pom boots from you. They were a birthday present for her. The shoes came the day you said they would. She opened the box, and she was thrilled. She LOVED them. The color was a gorgeous brown (camel color). We were having some very warm weather here in GA last week. However, she wore them out that night. She is a student at UGA, and she has gotten many, many compliments on them. They do look cute on her.
Thank you for offering a great non animal product.

I just found your website through PETA and I just wanted to say Thank
you. I love all of your products and I can't wait to order
something--most likely shoes since I can't find non-leather. Your
products are really neat and I just wish I would have found it before
Christmas so that I could have done Christmas shopping with you
guys!!!!

Hello, I just wanted to say how much I love your Web site. I'm a practicing vegetarian as well as my two sisters. I was online shopping for "vegetarian friendly" gift ideas when I came across your site! How very exciting! I just love it! It's fun, it inviting, it's animal-friendly. I will certainly be buying products from your site for myself and for my vegetarian friends and family members!

To the creators of Alternative Outfitters...
I read in my local paper (of the Quad Cities, Illinois/Iowa) that Pamela Anderson was selling her jewelry and belt collections on your website. I thought I would check it out, and I could not physically be happier that I did! I am a nineteen-year-old vegetarian, and I am constantly looking for non-leather accessories. I have wanted "ugg-style" boots all year, but refuse to buy the suede/shearling combination. I was absolutely estatic to see that such boots DO exist! I browsed your website for a long time, racking up a huge wish-list. Thank you so, so much for providing such a great feature, and thanks also to Pamela Anderson for using her celebrity status to encourage others to make the right decisions about animals and animal products. THANKS AGAIN!
Sincerely,
Annie

Hello,
I received the shoes a couple of weeks back, and I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with your friendly service and quick delivery times. My mother and I absolutely adore our vegan shoes, and they fit nicely too!
I am SO glad that you have such a website; it makes it so much easier to find vegan shoes than trying to hunt them down in stores.
I hope that you will be able to add more vegan products in the future (e.g. outerwear) as your company grows. Look forward to shopping again on your website.
Special thanks to Jackie for answering my questions over the phone.
Thanks again,

Dear Alternative Outfitters,
I received my purse in the mail today and want to thank you for the quick service. I think it took a day for the order to be processed and shipped to my house. AMAZING! But I just wanted to let you know how much I really do appreciate it. And also, the "Thank you! - Jackie :)" definitely put Alternative Outfitters over the top. Just that extra little effort at personalizing the order proved how Alternative Outfitters provides great customer service. Again, thank you so much for the great service. I love the purse, and I will definitely continue shopping with you again and tell my friends about your store. Have a wonderful day!
Sincerely,

Hi! I wanted to let you know that I love your site! I came across it a few days ago while looking online for boots for the fall. I'm surprised I haven't heard of Alternative Outfitters before - I try to stay on top of what's going on in the world of all things vegan, but I guess I fell behind. What I really like is that it breaks out of the clichι that vegans are either hippies or punks! Your site has more to offer than hemp and vulcanized rubber, and I appreciate that. I like the idea that it's possible to be vegan AND fashionable! I ordered a pair of boots today and I can't wait for the weather to get cooler so I can wear them!
I've added your site to the Shopping Links page on my website, VeggieGirl. Keep up the good work!
Cheers,

I received my shoes and purse and I LOVE THEM! I wore my pink polka dot bow sandals yesterday with my pink pants and I got stopped 3 times in the market last night so I turned some people on to your website. Anyways, good luck and thanks again from a very intrigued and satisfied customer.

I wanted to let you know that I received my order and I am thrilled with absolutely everything I ordered--both pairs of shoes, the purse, the "toe pads" and the nail polish! The quality was actually beyond what I expected and I cannot wait until you get even more quality goods to offer (I'm especially looking for "Off to Work" shoes that are vegan but still office-appropriate and sexy, i.e., not all vegan women want to wear "Earth Shoes" or big clunky heels/platforms . . . .) The "Classic Pumps" are absolutely perfect! Alternative Outfitters ROCKS!

I would like to thank you for offering such cool products for all the sassy vegan girls out there... I recently ordered two pairs of shoes from your website... and have been wearing them each day ever since! It's so hard to find vegan shoes - let alone really cool ones... one pair even looks like a pair of "Diesel" brand shoes - but minus the cruelty... and pricetag!
Again, thanks for offering awesome products... the entire concept is great, from the products to the easy-to-use website, to the great customer service... Your site makes being vegan even sassier!
I look forward to many more purchases!
Thanks again,
Angela

I wanted to tell you how much I absolutely love all the great vegan stuff I ordered from your on-line store. Everyone comments on my green and orange tennies and my head wraps... And I bring the awesome green bag with me to work every day. I tell everyone where I got them.
Thanks again for your wonderful store.
