# Not Amazon
Mostly for my own use, this is a list of U.S.-based online shops that are not Amazon. If you are looking to stop paying for J-Beezy's yacht maintenance while his workers piss in bottles, and you're based in the U.S.A., you might find this list useful too. Vegan and small independent brands get priority, of course. I do not receive any sort of commission or kick-back from any of the below stores. If you do want to buy something that I get a kick-back from, check out my (sparse) [referrals](/referrals) page. I haven't personally tried all of these retailers, so use judgment before purchasing.

[^1]: I know what you're thinking, but I have not once had any issues with peeling or damage on the faux-leather uppers from this brand (most intentionally vegan brands have this handled). In fact, they last and look good for longer than animal-skin shoes because the material is not damaged by moisture or road salt. If you really want a true buy-it-for-life option, though (and if they have them in your size), go for the Goodyear welt options so that the shoes are properly resoleable at a cobbler.
[^2]: I bought a sofa with angled legs; not the most structurally sound arrangement. When one broke, it took me years to get around to making a warranty claim. They honored it, but I first had to send the couch back. They then told me that the model I bought was no longer available, but I could select one from the website of the same value before any sales or discounts. There were two problems with this. First, years had passed and prices had risen. Second, just about everything on that website seems to be perpetually on sale. And so I went to war. There were mysterious email deliverability issues, negotiations, and many phone calls. Eventually, I got a nice new replacement couch for Sol to leave crumbs on with entirely vertical legs. Result.
