This is a shame because if you search for leather goods online, you’ll find whole shops full of garbage quality leather called Premium Crafted Leather aka PU Leather. They take leather fibers and coat it in polyurethane to give it a “proper” finish.
It’s disappointing to see a race to the bottom with leather quality when it seems like there’s no need for that.
- human20190310 7y agoNon-leather goods are even worse. It's really hard to find a vegan wallet and belt that isn't pretending to be leather in some inadequate way.
- hombre_fatal 7y ago> It's really hard You can't just google "canvas wallet" or whatever is your preferred material?
- human20190310 7y agoMany of these canvas wallets include features such as "full-grain leather trim" which defeats the purpose of the search. Those that don't mostly look like fragile garbage.
- nitrogen 7y agoMaybe just skip the traditional look entirely and buy a wallet made from Tyvek, or maybe a solid metal billfold/card holder.
- rjsw 7y agoThere seem to be plenty of fabric wallets available to me.
- wolco 7y agoVegan wallet? Sounds like a marketing ploy. Look for plastic or hemp or clothe if leather is off the table.
