1 People vegan belts
Love the look of a skinny belt but looking for a vegan version? 1 People have a few different styles of thin belts made from eco friendly materials like vegan pineapple leather and grape leather.
Piñatex is a vegan leather made from pineapples, with waste leftover from the food industry. Grape leather is similar, in that it’s made with grape skins, seeds and stems leftover as waste from the wine industry. Both are more eco-friendly than standard vegan (PU) leather as they use waste products as part of their production.
The belt is made with GOTS certified dyes and an eco vegan suede lining. It has a signature decorative 1 People buckle in gold. The belt above is charcoal toned but they also have camel and true black belts, though the other belts feature a standard circular gold belt buckle rather than the decorative buckle pictured above. Personally, I love the decorative look but if you prefer a more classic/minimalist look, then the circle buckles are your friend.
Stelar
Hand-woven by evacuees from the Mount Agung volcano in Bali, this jacquard vegan woven belt is so beautiful and unique.
Made from cotton, in coral, turquoise and black (with plenty of other colour combinations available), and a yellow gold colour buckle, it can even be hand-washed. This belt will really make your outfit!

They have belts in a range of colours, including green, red and purple if you want to stand out. They also have a vegan studded belt, and a belt that says ‘VEGAN’ in studs, if you want to make a statement.
