Win Keep shoes!!

Tags: competition, giveaway, Keep, shoes

There comes a time in everyone's life when they need a pair of really, unbelievably good shoes. For you - that time is now. We're giving away the best shoes I think I've seen this year. Take a look for yourself then find out how you can win a pair.


Hit the pictures to see the new 2012 collections you can choose from if (when!) you win.

Introducing Keep - the very generous people behind these cool animal-friendly shoes. Launched in 2006 and based in LA, according to them, "Keep is a shoe company, an amalgam of interests, a way of being, a force, a language, a family and many other things." And most importantly, everything they make is completely cruelty-free (and looks unreal).

I could go on for ages about Keep, but I'll limit myself to just these 3 points:
1. They've done a shoe collab with Bon Iver to support an animal sanctuary. That's awesome on many different levels.
2. Their Facebook page is actually interesting, so make sure you go check it out.
3. They're giving away two pairs of sneakers to Unleashed members - one for guys, one for girls. (Adam and Eve would have totally loved this comp.)

To win...

...all you have to do is tell me what you'll be doing in 2013 to keep helping animals. It might be to attend a rally against live exports; to lend that animal rights book you have to one of your friends; or to make that next step in ditching dairy or eggs from your meals. There's a 1000 ways you can help animals in 2013 - you just have to choose one!

Fine print: your entry must be 30 words or less; there'll be one guy and one girl winner; you can only enter once; in case you win and were thinking of getting me a Xmas pressie, I like the Shaheens.

This promotion ends December 23rd which isn't far away - so get your entries in NOW! Good luck!

Oh, and here's something to watch while you're thinking.

I walk shelter dogs every week....I  usually walk between 4 or 5 dogs in a day (one-by-one) and I take them off the shelter grounds out into the world...I have a quite place I will walk them and a nice spot to sit and spend some one-on-one time with each doggie outside of the shelter. The very hardest thing is taking them back to the cage after the walk is over. I will continue to walk the shelter dogs even tho it sometimes (most all the time) makes me sad. Sometimes (a lot of times actually) there are happy endings tho...dogs get homes and people get friends for life...

In Hungary we had our first success just a few years ago by putting it into law that animal abuse is a crime and you go to jail for it. There is a huge crowd trying to help, protect, take care and educate everyone around them. I am going to keep up with the good work and the first thing next year is to help one of my good friend who owns an animal sanctuary with food and blankets and toys and anything she needs. small steps do mean a lot! As the saying goes: you save one life you save a whole world.

I just switched to a vegan diet in May of this year.  Next year I will be trying to convert my husband & children to a vegan (or mostly vegan) diet.  I would also like to do something to help the thousands of stray/homeless animals in many parts of the world like Detroit & Puerto Rico.  I am not sure yet what I can do since I live in BC, Canada.  At this point I have only donated money but I would like to be more hands on.  Perhap I will see if there is a local shelter or animal rescue that can take some of these dogs in and adopt them out...maybe I can become a foster...or perhaps I can donate my time to a local shelter.  
I will also be trying to source animal free footwear for myself & my family.broccoli

I display my shopping trolley sign every week, and turn lots of people away from buying down, leather, and animals tested products.
I wear my bright orange AA Tshirt with pride and show folks I won't tolerate Live exports.
My car is covered with anti-cruelty campaign stickers.
And I talk a lot........tell people the facts and pass on education so that we can end/ban animal cruelty.
Oh, I'm vego too - only eat eggs from a local free range farm...or from my Mum's chooks!!

I've already become vegan this year and have never looked back. It's so easy and I've never been so healthy in my life as I am now. I've donated money to Animals Australia too, and will continue to do so.
But more importantly, I will help those close to me see how easy it is to just not eat meat and to explore the endless meat-free options until they, too, make the switch.
