Why would you call something “plant based” when it uses a lot of plastic which after short time degrades and exposes it to the environment?

      I had a hard time finding a decent vegan wallet that held up…I had a knockoff Ridge for a while and liked it…eventually my SIL got me a real one for my birthday.

      If you don’t carry much cash and just need to carry a few cards and ID, I can’t recommend it enough.

      Dress shoes that are vegan and ethical/environmentally sound and hold up and fit my bigass US 14EEEE feet is actually impossible.

      Yeah, the simplest answer is to just skip the leather look rather than going with a bunch of plastic junk.

      If you still want to, I would consider cork and waxed canvas to be reasonable options. Waxed canvas in particular is quite a durable material, so it can be a good choice for bags and jackets.
