Let's Talk About Cork Fabric v. Leather

Cork fabric is a strong competitor and solid alternative to leather products for environmental, ethical, and practical reasons. Unlike leather processing, which often uses harsh chemicals and results in environmental waste and water pollution, the cork fabric process is environmentally safe, cruelty-free and plant based, and results in a fabric that is durable, easy to maintain and lightweight. With a wide variety of colors and patterns, cork fabric products offer something for everyone. Shasta Bags collection of handmade bags offers many styles and fabric choice that will appeal to everyone's taste and budget.
