Remember Pleather? It’s been rebranded “vegan leather”.

@ILMEditor writes on LinkedIn: No, not all vegan leather is Pleather. But vegan leather is almost always coated in tremendous amounts of polyurethane, which is harmful to the world and everything in it.


Real leather, on the other hand, is made from a biodegradable material that has been used for thousands of years. It’s a byproduct of the food industry—animals are not raised or killed for its hide alone.


So instead of propping up vegan leather, which is resource-intensive and unsustainable, let’s finish this natural material with another natural, upcycled material—one that delivers the same or better durability than fossil fuel derived finishes.
