A Manifesto for Leather at COP29: Buy Better, Buy Less, Buy Leather
As global consumption continues to drive climate change, it’s time to shift our focus to durable, sustainable materials like leather. With its durability, repairability, and long lifespan, leather offers a stark contrast to fast fashion and its devastating environmental impact.
At COP29, we urge global leaders to recognise the true value of natural materials—like leather—in building a sustainable future and reducing the environmental impact of consumer goods. Together, we can champion slow fashion and embrace materials that promote circularity.
Let’s make the shift: Buy better, buy less, buy leather
We bring leather, material and fashion businesses together: an opportunity to meet and greet face to face. We bring them from all parts of the world so that they can find fresh partners, discover new customers or suppliers and keep ahead of industry developments.
We organise a number of trade exhibitions which focus on fashion and lifestyle: sectors that are constantly in flux, so visitors and exhibitors alike need to be constantly aware both of the changes around them and those forecast for coming seasons.
