André Toulon 17315 Posted May 13 I'm sure it is just leather not made from cows....I'll accept that.... it's pleather But who the fuck is eating it for it to be called vegan. I guess I just assumed vegan meant it was eaten or drank in some way.....but if I buy a fake fur....is it vegan fur? I hate this name and it's stupid 1 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nablonsky 67 Posted May 13 Being vegan doesn't just refer to the vegan diet. It means not engaging in the consumption of products built on animal exploitation, such as wearing leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1pooh4u 23692 Posted May 13 Vegan leather is probably the same material that fake leather was always made from. Vegan’s are opposed to any animal exploitation it’s not just a diet, it’s a way of life and philosophy 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katt_goddess 11075 Posted May 13 The hydes of many a nauga have been sacrificed for fashion. And then some knob decided to remarket everything as 'vegan leather' . My miniskirt was not vegan. It was made of the rarest of creatures - the dalmatian spotted nauga. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chapinator_X 3996 Posted May 14 I think it’s a rebranding of synthetic leather or pleather. Because it’s not made from real animal, it’s technically vegan, so it’s supposed to make people feel good for supporting vegan leather. But in reality, they’re actually buying rebranded flea market handbags. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vamped 13852 Posted May 14 Way before the pandemic, I found this little collection of cow hides in IKEA and I was like .... oh fuck thats a lot of dead cows to just throw on somebody's floor as a rug But then I was like..... cows get slaughtered every day for meat so .... is the cow hide economical in that you're not throwing pieces of dead cow away ... or are these separate rug cows that get slaughtered Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
