* Faux-leather travel bags that are vegan-friendly and cruelty-free
* Enjoy the stylish look of leather without the guilt of where it came from
* These Sole Society pieces are ideal as weekend, overnight and carry-on bags
Just because you don’t like how something is made, doesn’t mean you can’t appreciate how great it looks. Items sporting animal fur and leather are widespread throughout the fashion world. While such items are not vegan, many people who would rather not wear such cruel items still appreciate their style.
For this reason, the popularity of faux items is soaring. Replacing leather and fur with artificial, eco-friendly sourced materials that look like the real thing, these items look great without the guilt. In particular, Sole Society has developed a line of cruelty-free, vegan travel bags that we’re drooling over. Here are the 4 best faux leather options that are both functional and stylish at the same time, and they all come without a hint of animal-sourced materials.
1. Sole Society Cassidy Duffel
The Sole Society Cassidy Duffel is just the right size for a weekend getaway. It could also act as a carry-on bag for any vacation. The Cassidy features both an adjustable strap and double handles to give you a choice of carrying options and also comes in four different colors: new black, taupe, cognac and Bordeaux. Inside the zip-top bag, you’ll find a number of pockets and a central compartment that’s ideal for clothing and other larger items.
