Alma: Sculptural Plant-Based Leather Handbags brings modern elegance to life with plant-based craft and architectural lines. Designed in New York and handcrafted in small batches, each silhouette is shaped from certified Banofi banana leather made from banana-harvest waste. It mirrors the look and feel of traditional leather while using 95 percent less water and producing 90 percent fewer emissions. The signature arc, inspired by fluid architecture, reflects motion and purpose. Thoughtful details, enduring construction, and mindful packaging made from cotton rag waste and banana fiber complete the story. Back it on Kickstarter now.
