From the materials we use to create our products to our packaging, we use the most eco-friendly option.
Our bags are made from quality vegan and/or recycled materials. Our shipping is carbon neutral and our packaging mailers are compostable.
When we say that sustainability can be chic AND functional, we live by those words!
Leather is not only harmful to animals but also the environment.
According to the Higg Materials Sustainability Index (the fashion industry's trusted tool to measure environmental impacts of materials), tanning is the most toxic phase in leather processing. 90% of leather production uses a process called chromium tanning.
This happens when leather hides are doused in water, chromium salts and tanning liquor to stop them from decomposing. It produces a lot of chemicals and gases, including carcinogenic chromium, all of which are toxic to our environment.
The Higg Materials Sustainability Index gives leather an impact score of 159 due to its high contribution to global warming and water use.
Higher the number, greater the impact.
The Higg Materials Sustainability Index gives vegan leather an impact score of 32, which is significantly lower than genuine leather and polyester.
