SookStainable is a sustainable fashion brand that uses natural and eco-friendly materials to create fashionable, high quality and comfortable clothes. Our products are free from harmful chemicals and dyes. We work hard to make sure our products are safe for the environment and people around the world.
Sustainable materials for fashion are non-toxic and biodegradable. We can easily recycle them after use. Sustainable fabrics are also from other plants rather than petroleum-based materials such as cotton, or other renewable resources such as bamboo or hemp. Sustainable materials are generally more expensive than traditional textiles but they are worth it because they have less negative effects on the environment.
Vegetable tanned leather is a natural material that comes from the skins of animals that were fed on plants. It’s a sustainable alternative to leather made from other animals, like cattle and pigs. Vegetable tanned leather is not as popular as other leathers in fashion industry, but it still captured designers’ and brands’ attention around the world. Here are three popular fashion brands that use vegetable tanned leather in sustainable fashion:
Adidas – Adidas’ Originals sneakers’ materials are premium full grain leathers from local tanneries around the world, including Italy, Germany and Japan. Skilled craftsmen in Germany or Portugal follow strict standards of quality control, cut and assemble the Adidas shoes during production.
Giorgio Armani has been using vegetable-tanned leather for its bags since 1997—and it’s been a success! The brand continues to expand its use of eco-friendly materials, including recycled paper packaging and recycled cotton twill. We can reuse them up to 10 times before it needs another washing.
Tom Ford – The material of their luxury handbags and accessories is vegetable-tanned leather. The process involves soaking hides in water for up to six months, then processing them with vegetable dyes and natural oils before dying them black. The leathers are then cut, dyed and finished by hand in Italy or Spain.
SookStainable uses a sustainable process that involves tanning the leather in an eco-friendly way. The vegetable tanned leather is first soaked in a chemical solution that removes the excess oil from it. We use water to replace the chemical solution. We want to make sure that no chemicals remain on the leather. This process is repeated three times until all traces of chemicals are gone from the leather.
SookStainable also uses other natural ingredients such as honey, lime juice and spices to give it natural properties such as antibacterial properties without any added chemicals.
The SookStainable team is passionate about making their products as sustainable as possible. They use vegetable tanned leather to create items such as wallets and handbags, which are less harmful for the environment at the end of its life cycle. We can use these items again and again, so they have a smaller environmental impact than other options like plastic bags or paper bags.
Conclusion:
The production process of vegetable tanned leather is not easy but the result is worth it. It will protect the people and the environment from the harmful effects of chemical agents. Vegetable tanned leather has sustainable values thanks to the materials used and production processes used. SookStainable aims to continue producing products that are quality products with sustainable materials for everyone to enjoy daily use.
