Stella McCartney's plastic-free alternative to animal leather

MIRUM leather

Historically, leather alternatives are crafted from fossil fuel-derived synthetics which negatively impact the environment.

Committing to a mission to develop material innovations that are not only cruelty-free, but that positively impact the environment, MIRUM was created. This fabric is the first-known scalable, 100% plastic-free alternative to animal leather. Produced in Illinois, this innovative alternative is consciously crafted from a combination of virgin natural materials and upcycled agricultural side-streams, remaining entirely plastic-, fossil fuel- and water-free.

Its craftsmanship prioritises the local communities and environments by only utilising natural, local ingredients, in turn enhancing local biodiversity and regenerating soil systems.
