No. The popular phrase now used for manmade materials in shoes is "vegan leather". I guess plastic and vinyl are more virtuous. FWIW, most vinyl shoes are garbage and don't breath.

Hard to find decent leather shoes these days. Clarkes still uses leather for most of its footgear. I pay a lot for mine, but they last for several years. Hardly any shoe repair businesses can be found anymore to fix rundown heels, etc., so I found online videos that explain how to fix things.
