You want a sharp lookin' belt, but don't wear animal skin…hmmm… Here you go!  This shop offers cork “leather” belts, wallets, handbags, laptop bags,  desk mats and more! I know when you hear cork, you think wine bottles and cork boards, but cork leather is smooth + sturdy and built to last.  I bought this belt for my husband: https://www.etsy.com/listing/714787041/vegan-belt-men-engraved-personalized and it's made it through longtime daily use!

Vegan designs with childhood nostalgia (if you were born in the 70's or 80's!)   I've bought many shirts, tote bags, hats, stickers and patches from Alicia over the past several years.  These are beautiful quality, and long-lasting, through years of wearing and washing. If you are lucky enough to see her at a vegan event, say hello!  She's as friendly as she is talented!
