Woven Vegan Cork Leather Belt | Brown By Watson & Wolfe

Cork: Cork leather has existed for many decades – in Portugal, where there is an abundance of cork trees, it's a frequently used product among local artisans. Cork is removed from the tree without having to cut the tree down, and regrows after the process, allowing the tree to keep absorbing CO2 from the air in order to regrow the bark._

Cork trees used for harvesting cork can harvest up to five times more CO2 than trees that aren't used for cork production – this is one case where industries are actually positive for the planet. Cork trees in Portugal help offset up to 10 million tonnes of carbon every year. Hence, cork is a naturally regenerative material that renews itself, making it a friend to both the environment and animals, as it's a great replacement for animal skins in fashion. It has been used by Calvin Klein, Jimmy Choo, and Chloè.
