if you try to buy shoes or a belt these days the product description on the website will be like "a new Premium Vegan Leather made from recycled water bottles and discarded apple skins from the apple juice industry!!!" well i would like it to be made out of discarded cow skins from the cow industry. is that an option.
#sorry for being a real leather snob but it will happen again#i try to minimise the amount of meat i eat mainly for environmental reasons#but we're never gonna get to a 100% animal product free society and i don't think we should try to!#and replacing animal derived products with Yet More Plastic is an option that's pretty counter to my goals anyway.#i will take the dead cow shoes and wear them for ten+ years thank you#modern leather manufacturing means they probably won't biodegrade all THAT gracefully when i'm done with them#still better than polyurethane though.
