The Chanterelle design gets its name from the golden chanterelle mushroom, infamously difficult to cultivate, mostly grown in the wild, and highly-prized for its unique flavor and aroma, making them a favorite among chefs and food enthusiasts. Featuring vivid colors of the fungi in the mushroom forests of Colorado, this design is irresistibly one-of-a-kind.
You can find this best-selling design on the Vegan Jogger, Vegan Trekk Boot, Belt Bag, and Backpack.
