Sleek and Stylish Vegan Leather Belts

Posted by Calvin on November 20, 2024

Whether you look for practicality, fashion, or both in a belt, one thing you should always avoid is leather. The leather industry forces cows and other animals to live in extremely crowded conditions and slaughters them for their skin—some of the animals are skinned while they’re still conscious. 😢 You for sure don’t want to support this, right? Then make sure to only buy belts made with cork, polyester, and other vegan materials, like these choices:
