USA, March 7, 2002: The Vegetarian Resource group offers an online “Shoppers Guide to Leather Alternatives.” The companies listed are separated into several categories. The Vegan Mail order section includes companies that sell only completely animal-free products. The Catalogs, Companies, and Stores section lists companies that sell or manufacture both leather-free and leather goods. The remaining sections of this guide list specific styles of shoes and goods and the companies who make them or the stores/catalogs that carry them. The above website offers sources for leather-free: athletic shoes, dress shoes, work boots, tool belts, coats and jackets, belts, bags, and wallets, ballet shoes, balls, baseball gloves and more.
