The feel-good bag. As we search through thousands of high end luxury leather bags, it was difficult to wade through their tags to find the glorious “V” sign — indicator of the magnificent baggage of vegan leather. So what makes a bag vegan?
Ideally, or well, necessarily, a vegan leather bag uses alternative material to replace real leather. Several different materials make up this alternative leather, for instance:
Vegetan
Lorica
Birko-Flor
Birkibuc
PVC
Kydex
Those are just some of the brands and designers which are offering vegan-friendly fashion products: Deux Lux, Reveal, Matt & Nat, Sparrow, Eena Maria, Murval, Amy Kathryn, Kling, Cherry Berry, etc.
A wide variety of synthetic leather is virtually indistinguishable from real leather, right down to the quality, wear and feel. An evolution to include “Pleather” is also slowly dawning upon the fashion industry, with more and more fashion icons including this luxurious animal-friendly leather into their wardrobes. You can expect spending a lot of time and moolah on finding the right vegan bag — but, hey, if it is moo-free.
