10 Leather Items That Beat Vegan Options

10 Leather Items That Beat Vegan Options

Leather stuff just has that rugged vibe and staying power vegan alternatives can’t touch. From bags to belts, leather versions are built to last through years of hard use. I’ve got a leather wallet that’s been with me through three jobs and still looks dope—vegan ones I tried started peeling in months. Here’s 10 items where leather totally outshines vegan knockoffs.

Wallets

Leather wallets hold up through daily pocket wear, staying sturdy and stylish. Vegan wallets often crack or fade fast under the same grind.

Belts

A solid leather belt keeps its shape and strength for years, even with heavy use. Vegan belts sag or snap way quicker.

Boots

Leather boots handle mud, rain, and rough terrain like champs. Vegan boots usually wear out or peel after a season.

Jackets

Leather jackets age like fine wine, getting cooler with wear. Vegan leather jackets flake and tear in harsh weather.

Briefcases

Leather briefcases take a beating from commutes and still look sharp. Vegan ones often split at the seams in no time.

Watch Straps

Leather watch straps stay comfy and strong through sweat and daily wear. Vegan straps fray or discolor way faster.

Totes

Leather totes carry heavy loads without stretching or tearing. Vegan totes usually bust under the same weight.

Journals

Leather journal covers protect pages through years of use and travel. Vegan covers crack or warp with less abuse.

Knife Sheaths

Leather knife sheaths stay tough and secure in rugged conditions. Vegan sheaths wear out or loosen up quick.

Tooled Bags

Tolled leather bags are works of art that last decades with proper care. Vegan bags peel or fade in just a year or two.
