APPLE LEATHER
A BIO-BASED VEGAN LEATHER
MATERIAL DERIVED FROM
ORGANIC APPLE PEELS
FIGHTING CLIMATE CHANGE, ONE APPLE AT A TIME.
Apple leather is a byproduct of the apple juice industry. The repurposing of apple peels keeps them from decomposing and producing methane that contributes to climate change.
Durable, breathable, UV-resistant, and hypoallergenic, this vegan, responsibly produced material is the heart of VEERAH APPEEL, the world's first apple leather shoe collection.
