SUSTAINABILITY

Learn more about our materials and commitment to sustainability.

In the world of fashion, the term "vegan leather" is often tossed around, but here's the truth – "vegan leather" isn't a material in the traditional sense; rather, it’s a marketing term used to represent leather alternatives. With greenwashing on the rise, understanding this is crucial.

As a company that values transparency, here’s everything you need to know about our materials:

Certified Global Recycled Standard Polyurethane

GRS PU

Our dedication to elevated workmanship meets sustainability with our choice of Recycled Polyurethane (rPU). We work with EU-certified materials to guarantee the utmost quality. Embodying the durability, water resistance, and aesthetics similar to real leather, our rPU is a lightweight, easy-to-maintain material with a soft and supple hand feel.

Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate

rPET

Our commitment to reducing plastic waste extends to our monogram lining, crafted from Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (rPET). This fabric is a testament to our eco-conscious approach, utilizing recycled plastic bottles to create a strong and resilient material. As we incorporate recycled polyester into our designs, we contribute to the reduction of plastic waste in landfills, completing a cycle where fashion meets environmental responsibility.

EUROPEAN UNION STANDARDS

EU CERTIFIED

Beyond our fabrics, we only use high-quality YKK zippers, and custom-make all of our hardware to ensure that there are no hazardous metals (like lead and cadmium) - all certified with EU standards.
