According to the data provided by Fluence, 1,890,000 litres of water are needed to raise one cow, 103,950 litres (5.5%) out of 1,890,000 are considered to be for leather*. According to their calculations, about 6kg of leather are produced per head, in other words, each kilo of leather requires approximately 17,000 litres of water. This amount is confirmed by the Water Footprint Network.

On the other hand, in the manufacture of our synthetic leather fabric only 30 liters are used per kilo. That is, 566 times less. We also avoid the slaughter of millions of animals (a fundamental pillar of our brand philosophy).

According to the article "Carbon and energy footprint analysis of tannery wastewater treatment: A Global overview" the emissions caused due to the industrial process of leather and the treatment of the wastewater per year are considered to be around  1.0 1011 kg CO2 equivalent.

We find pointless the use of archaic materials such as leather. Andromeda clothing uses only animal-free fabrics. That means, our products are entirely vegan. We are the only 100% vegan motorcycle clothing brand.
