Caring for Your Leather Luggage

Travel takes a toll on a piece of luggage, which all too often leads to short lifespans and more waste in the landfill. While most vegan leathers, upcycled or recycled materials, and fabrics made from plastic water bottles will eventually wear out and be discarded, genuine full-grain leather will last a lifetime when cared for properly. Thatā€™s just one of the things that makes it the most truly sustainable and eco-friendly material for travel gear. Full grain leather is not only durable, but it forms a patina with every trip, becoming an ongoing memento of all the journeys you've taken together.

Check out our tips for taking care of your leather luggage,
backpacks, and totes to preserve their quality.

Sustainable Luggage for A Better World

Sustainable Practices Start to Finish: As a certified B Corp business, the sustainability of our products and their impact on the world and our employees is everything to us at Parker Clay. From sustainable material sourcing to manufacturing to shipping, every one of our products is made to the highest ethical standards at every step of the supply chain.

Carbon Neutral Materials: Sustainable leather is leather that is a byproduct of local farming and agriculture industries. Because these animals are not raised for the express purpose of using their leather for goodsā€”they are first and foremost farm animalsā€”harvesting their leather for new purposes helps develop zero waste farming.

Sustainable Jobs and Benefits: We employ local women, many of whom have been vulnerable to human trafficking, as our artisans and provide them with high-paying, professional-level jobs. We also provide all employees with education, full health care, transport benefits, coffee breaks, and a wide range of other support. From fair wages to our working conditions and operations, every aspect of our production and tannery facilities in Addis Ababa has been constructed to fulfill principles of fair trade and a dignified work environment.

Local Ethical Leather Sourcing:
All the leather for our sustainable fashion pieces is sourced from local Ethiopian farmers in the
