Time for Green Vegan Bags!

For past few months, people and brands have become more conscious of the kind of products they are offering because consumers are gaining awareness and the boost to step up and join in the revolution to save the Earth. From eliminating plastics to “Bring your own Cutlery”, many activities have been initiated by the youth as a part of green revolution. With the change of consumer demands, fashion industry too couldn’t help but own up their mistakes and take steps to curb the problems and join hands with the ongoing revolution. 

 Vegan leather, an oxymoron, is the ethical and cruelty-free alternative to traditional leather.  It’s known by different names—artificial leather, synthetic leather, faux leather. But in essence, it is meant to look and feel like traditional leather without any of its ethical concerns. Given the leather and tanning industry is one of the most polluting ones in the world, the vegan version is also a relatively more sustainable choice. The faux alternatives are made from a wide range of materials: cannabis, cork fabric and even waste flowers from temples. With a spike in demand for sustainable fashion, the Indian vegan leather market now has a number of brands ready with options.
