INSPIRED BY THE ENVIRONMENT

KNOWN FOR INNOVATING FABRICS FOR BAGS, IN 2006 I BEGAN EXPLORING WAYS TO FABRICATE TEXTILES THAT WOULD TRANSFORM INTO EVERYDAY BAGS FROM EVERYDAY MATERIALS. IN 2018 I MOVED FROM THE EAST COAST TO THE WEST COAST AND THE CHANGE IN MY ENVIRONMENT HAD A PROFOUND EFFECT ON ME AS I BEGAN MAINTAINING A HEALTHIER MINDSET AND LIFESTYLE. BECOMING VEGAN INFLUENCED THE WAY I FEEL, LOOK AND DO. SINCE THE PANDEMIC, THE CONCEPT OF TRAVEL IS NO LONGER DEFINED BY EITHER BUSINESS OR VACATION AND THE DIGITAL NOMAD WHO WORKS FROM EVERYWHERE NEEDS LESS TO CARRY WITH THEM NOT MORE. YET WHEN I LOOK FOR STYLISH BAGS THAT TRAVEL FOR WORK, I SEE ONLY BASIC NYLON OR EXTREMELY HIGH PRICED DESIGNER. AS A VEGAN IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO CHOOSE A MATERIAL FOR MY BAGS THAT WAS LIGHTWEIGHT, SUSTAINABLE AND CUSTOMIZED FROM NATURE. THE INVENTION OF CACTUS LEATHER BEING MORE RESILLIANT THEN ANY OTHER BIO LEATHER DEFINED ALL THAT I AM AND COULD DESIGN THAT STANDS ON ITS OWN IN STYLE, SUBSTANCE AND SUSTAINABILITY. CACTUS IS GREEN AND SO ISN'T OUR FUTURE.

FAQ

MATERIAL INFORMATION

What is Cactus Leather?

Cactus Leather is the latest innovation in sustainable fashion that comes from the leaves of Nopal Cactus Plants. Nopal Cactus grows abundantly in Mexico without needing any water. The properties of the nopal cactus plant are an organic and partially biodegradable solution to the plastic pollution crisis and is versatile enough to be used in fashion, automobile interiors and furniture.

How is Cactus Leather Made?

  1. Cactus pads are cut
  2. Washed and cleaned
  3. Mashed and dried
  4. Turned into Cactus Leather

The material is made from an organic cactus derived formula, with a backing made from recycled polyester and recycled cotton. It is made to last with a focus on durability. It is resistant to water, rubbing, and tearing. It also has a smooth, high quality finish.

Where does Cactus Leather Come From?

Opuntia Ficus-Indica Nopal which is a species of cactus that has long been a domesticated crop plant grown in agricultural economies throughout arid and semiarid parts of the world. Mexico has an abundant amount and is the prime source from where this material originated.

Why Is Cactus Leather More Sustainable then Animal Leather

Plant friendly Cactus Leather is a viable alternative to both animal-derived leather and traditional vegan leathers which can be made from highly toxic PVC or problematic polyurethane.

They are less harmful to the environment then animal leather, due to not only toxic chemicals used for tanning but also the devastating effects of raising animals on a large scale for human consumption.

  • Fact:Animal agriculture is the leading cause of climate change, among 1/3 of the water on the planet and 45% of land usage not to mention that the tanning process uses chemical compounds.

What Makes These Bags Special

The process for molding this material begins with an exclusive design by Andrea Valentini that is then made into a mold for each sheet of cut material to be molded into. The panel is then cut into the shapes for the bags to be stitched and assembled. There are only limited quantities of each style being produced to keep the integrity of the design as a sculptural work of art.

How Do I Clean Cactus Leather?

Easy to Clean using a soft cloth and spray or detergent for removing stains.

What is the Return Policy?
