Leather & Hide Council of America
The term 'leather' has been abused in recent years by a large number of fashion brands and other companies seeking to confuse consumers about the true composition of materials used to make their goods. Many times, these brands are trying to hide the truly alarming amount of cheap plastics that are used in their products by using vague and ambiguous terms such as “vegan leather” that do not accurately describe the materials being used.
