INNOVATIVE MATERIALS
Luxury Vegan Leathers
Our PETA-approved technical vegan leather is the only vegan leather to contain 50% rapidly renewable Tencel fibres. It is non-toxic, antibacterial and Clean Air Certified for low chemical emissions, making it a healthier choice for you to carry and have in your home. Not only is it beautiful and buttery soft, but it is stain, cracking and water resistant, lightweight and with a low carbon footprint.
In our vibrant bio-leather, plant material is mixed with recycled textiles, responsibly sourced viscose and recycled water bottles, diverting waste from landfills and protecting our natural resources.
This cutting-edge technology has a lower environmental impact than traditional leather production. It also avoids chemicals used in traditional leather processing which are toxic to humans and the environment.
By supporting our brand, not only are you investing in high quality, you are also contributing to a more circular economy which protects our natural world.
