Materials
Materials chosen with care - and described with honesty.
At VIVIABAG, we believe a beautiful bag shouldn't come at the expense of animals. That's why the large majority of our collection is made from vegan (animal-free) leather, a practical and elegant alternative to animal hide.
Our Vegan Leather
Our vegan leather is primarily made from polyurethane (PU) applied to a textile backing. It is designed to reproduce the look and feel of traditional leather, while being lighter and easier to care for.
In everyday use, this material is:
- Durable for regular daily use, with a smooth and consistent finish
- Easy to maintain — most marks can be wiped away with a soft, damp cloth
- Water-resistant, so it handles light rain and splashes (it is not fully waterproof)
- Free of animal-derived leather
Because it is not animal hide, the color and grain stay uniform from one bag to the next.
How We Describe Our Products
We describe every material as accurately as we can. If a product is made from vegan leather, we call it vegan leather; if it contains genuine leather, we say so. We avoid vague or exaggerated claims so you can shop with full confidence.
Caring for Your Bag
- Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals and solvents.
- Let the bag air-dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in a dust bag, and avoid prolonged direct sunlight.
