Sustainable leather is leather that is a byproduct of local
farming and agriculture industries. It is considered sustainable
because the animals are not raised for the express purpose of using
their leather for goods, they are primarily farm animals.
We source our leather from local Ethiopian providers who treat
their animals with care and respect. We also offer prime fair-trade
prices to local farmers. Since we use ethically sourced leather
from food animals, our sourcing has negligible environmental impact
on local agriculture and processes. And because our products are
hand-made, our industrial processes are likewise low impact and
sustainable. Another term for our sustainable leather is
“ethical
leather ” - ethics form the backbone of our business and
have led to Parker Clay’s success.
