There is a particular kind of sneaker that works harder than it looks. The Borena does that. The 3.5 cm platform sole lifts the silhouette without tipping into impractical territory — it is the kind of heel height that reads as intentional rather than effortful, and that you can actually wear from morning through to evening.
Prologue Shoes handmakes this in Turkey, and the construction shows. The synthetic suede upper gives the mocha colourway a texture that reads as premium without the animal welfare cost of conventional suede. The synthetic leather lining keeps the interior smooth against the foot, and the polyurethane sole provides the cushioning that makes the platform wearable rather than merely stylish.
Key details:
- 3.5 cm (1.4") platform heel
- Synthetic suede upper
- Synthetic leather lining
- Polyurethane sole
- Handmade in Turkey
- True to size
- 100% vegan
Fit note: Prologue Shoes confirm this style runs true to size. Available in UK sizes 5.5 through 9.
About Our Brand Prologue Shoes
The footwear industry has traditionally faced challenges regarding environmental and ethical impacts, often relying on materials with significant costs. Prologue Shoes addresses this by offering a compelling alternative: stylish, high-quality footwear designed to minimise harm.
What truly sets Prologue Shoes apart is its unwavering commitment to being 100% vegan, a founding principle rather than a trend. The brand meticulously selects recycled materials, including nylon, rubber, and cork, and innovates with linings made entirely from 100% recycled post-consumer PET plastic bottles. Many of their uppers also utilise this recycled PET, transforming discarded plastic into durable, wearable shoes.
Beyond its core collection, Prologue Shoes extends its ethical approach to a niche market with its 'Forever & Always' sustainable bridal shoe line. This demonstrates a deep commitment to integrating environmental accountability across all product offerings, consistently exploring new material innovations each season to ensure ongoing improvement.
