i don't know man, that looks synthetic to me

what would dinosaurs think of this "vegan" shoe?

How does it being synthetic have anything to do with it being vegan?

And a dinosaur would think "cool shoes".

Those fabrics are made of plastic, which is derived from oil, which forms over long periods of time from buried decaying plant and animal matter. 70% of the Earth's oil is from the Mesozoic Era, which encompassed the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous Periods, so formed during a time when dinosaurs lived and jokes about oil being made of dinosaurs are common. Oil is actually made of plankton rather than dinosaurs, though.
