Unless i'm missing something, we don't kill animals to make leather, it's a byproduct of the food industry, so unless the population turns vegan it's a waste not to use the leather. I'm not buying this eco marketing BS, this needs to make sense from start to finish to be something else than marketing exercise and have a real purpose.
Agreed 100%

Reminds me of the “green” paint my city started using to paint lines on roads. It lasted 1/5 as long but it was way less than 1/5 as bad for the planet, so painting the roads 5x as often was actually worse for the planet and cost the taxpayers a fortune, all while making the roads less safe.

And this drive away from leather is an udder fail.
