Brooklyn Beckham has come under fire for wearing vegan trainers, just days after admitting he eats steak three times a week.
The 22-year-old, who is the eldest child of Victoria and David Beckham, has become a sensation on social media, regularly sharing videos that showcase his impressive culinary skills.
However, he faced a huge backlash on Instagram after posting a picture of him wearing a pair of vegan trainers by Superdry, which are emblazoned with the word ‘VEGAN’ on the bottom of the sole.
In the snap, he’s sat on a sofa smiling at the camera, reclining shirtless on the furniture as he told his fans to rethink how their purchases can impact the planet.
But it was his caption heaping praise on the ethical sneaker that irritated some of his followers, and they voiced their disapproval in the comments.
“'@superdry vegan footwear. Coming soon. 24.01.22. Lower your fashion footprint,” Brooklyn urged his followers.
The budding chef became the face of Superdry last year, but his plea to buy vegan has been labelled as hypocritical, as just days earlier, he shared a cooking video focusing on his favourite food - steak.
“Babe you literally cook steak all the time make it make sense,” one commented.
“So try cooking plant based food now and I would be impressed,” another added.
“Geez you were cooking massive steaks the other day.,” a fan fumed, as one wrote: “You cooked a steak the other day.”
But one follower leapt to his defense, and suggested that Brooklyn’s steak eating could be just as sustainable as the vegan trainers.
“Vegan doesn't always mean sustainable:(( vegan shoes are often made of plastic which isn't all that better,” they explained.
In a recent cooking video, Brooklyn revealed he eats steak three times a week, and gave viewers his top tips to preparing the best tasting steak.
“'I absolutely love steak. I eat steak quite a lot. Sometimes once a week, sometimes twice a week and sometimes three times a week,” he said.
Brooklyn said he prefers his steak “almost burnt” on the outside, and medium rare inside.
