Alternative Leather Handbags

As demand for sustainable fashion grows, No.49 is redefining style with eco-friendly elegance by replacing traditional leather with innovative materials like apple leather, bamboo leather, recycled polyurethane, and raffia. The brand focuses on crafting handbags that look great while reducing environmental impact. Each material has a purpose: apple leather upcycles industry waste, bamboo leather uses minimal water and zero pesticides, and all materials are carefully chosen to uphold quality and sustainability.

No.49 also offsets the carbon footprint of every online order by supporting carbon removal projects, directly contributing to climate solutions. Additionally, the brand partners with CleanHub to remove 2 pounds of plastic from oceans for every handbag sold, creating positive change in coastal communities and protecting marine ecosystems.

The brand's handbags can be found online through its dedicated channels.
