For centuries, watches have been the staple accessories that showcase someone’s social status and (of course) tell the time. Over the time, designers developed watches with various embellishments that would meet the demand of customers from various social class. This would include stainless steels, diamonds, gold and animal leather to make it look more luxurious, expensive and beautiful. But what about Vegan Watches if you want to be ethical? No worries ladies and vegan friends, we got your back! We share with you a list of our vegan friendly watches brands!
Vegan watches
Good news, our Vegan friends can wear stainless steel straps to avoid the regulars watches in animal leather. It is fair since stainless steel itself is vegan-friendly and cruelty free. Leather watches are indeed pretty to look at but isn’t it horrifying to realise that our wrist is covered with dead animal’s skin?
If you are a conscious buyer, taking consideration before purchasing something is not unusual. We want no unethical items that harm other living entities and that are non-sustainable. Indeed, it just doesn’t align with our commitment. Being a conscious vegan consumer is actually a good thing. It means that we care about the environment. Besides, we give full support to businesses that put more effort in creating things that wouldn’t harm animals.
Vegan Friendly Watches get easier to find!
It used to be quite difficult for vegans to find a compassionate brand that sells cruelty-free timepieces. Thankfully, researchers found a fabric called Pinatex which is a vegan leather made from pineapple fiber. Thus, brands can avoid PVC, polyester and other synthetic chemical materials to make vegan leather watch strap. Along with this technology, new ethical brands produce gorgeous and luxurious vegan friendly watches. It is then easier for us to select the best ethical watches!
