Interested in vegan bags? Let me show you some beautiful vegan bags out there.
In my piece on is leather eco-friendly, I touched on many issues as to why leather isn’t great for the environment. From toxic heavy metal chemicals used in the tanning process to large-scale deforestation, increased methane levels, and animal cruelty issues.
This implies that leather alternatives are eco-friendly, but in the same article I touched on the issues with PVC and PU leather alternatives. These fossil-fuel based products aren’t friendly to the environment or to the workers.
As such, I have been looking out for greener vegan friendly bags.
Skunkfunk’s Vegan Bags
I feel like I hit the jackpot with Skunkfunk. They have a range of beautiful bags, available in the UK. And not only are Skunkfunk bags vegan, but Skunkfunk is big on sustainability too:
From clockwise:
Skunkfunk tote bag (£39)
Skunkfunk hand bag (£55) (be still my beating heart!
Satchel bag (£37)
Cross body bag (£65)
You get free returns and delivery, and what’s more, if you sign up to the newsletter you get £10 off when you first spend £50. That makes that pretty handbag £45… Hmm…!
Matt & Nat Bag’s
I came across a brand called Matt & Nat. Their vegan bags are a bit pricier but very stylish and classically timeless, and they are trying to be more sustainable in their operations too:
From clockwise:
Grey Tote Bag (£95)
Brown Tote Bag (£95)
Brown Tote Bag (£85)
Green Shoulder Bag (£70)
It’s been quite a tough job tracking down vegan-friendly bags that are also a bit greener in their production. If you come across any do let me know, as I plan to update this post as I find more bags that fit the bill.

OMG if I had the money I would be buying that first satchel right now, its glorious. I’m definitely going to remember that though and tell people about it!
I’m new to Skunkfunk, but loving all of their range right now!
I adore that skunkfunk handbag, gorgeous and so reasonable!
