The Beating Heart of Buddy Atelier

You Don’t Need “Real” Leather To Be Real Stylish!

Leather has long been affiliated with class, style, and image. But at what cost? Aside from harming animals, the process of working with leather also harms nature. We won’t get too scientific on you, but essentially, leather impacts something called “eutrophication”, whereby runoff waste causes plant life to overgrow in water systems.

So, yes – supporting leather production isn’t the best option for the environment. But instead of eliminating a millennia old industry altogether, we’re merely changing it – by working with nature, instead of against it.

Buddy Atelier specializes in crafting quality vegan leather accessories that are just as fashionable as they are functional and ecofriendly. We made a promise from day one to reduce anything that comes from an animal, while following 100% vegan leather production processes that are less toxic to Mother Earth.

Fewer chemicals, less water, humane working conditions...with Buddy Atelier, buying leather is better for you, the Earth, the animals, and the people.

We understand that the accessories you invest in are more than just, well, accessories. They’re a reflection of your character, and you need something that mirrors your strength, passions, and class. Buddy Atelier’s vegan leather accessories are just as versatile and tough as you are, from leather bag alternatives to vegan leather wallets, and even leather pet collars for your four-legged friends.

Why Vegan Leather?
Apart from being better for the planet and every creature that lives here, vegan leather is easy to clean, waterproof, durable, and tough in the face of daily wear and tear.
