    Leather for Good

    Leather is organic, natural, and has an incredible capacity for transformation, unlike other products used in the fashion industry, which are petroleum-based and involve highly polluting processes.

    Orgánico, natural y con alta capacidad de transformación

    Leather for Good is born as a movement for responsible and circular fashion, committed to actions focused on recycling, restoring, and reusing materials involved in leather transformation processes. Through this movement, we aim to share our practices, our purpose, and how each consumer can commit to responsible consumption.

    Sustainable from the Start

    Leather for Good, as a movement, began in 2023; however, sustainability is not a new topic for Vélez. For several years, we have committed to transforming each of our processes towards sustainable development, which has led us to be certified as a company with transparent environmental practices.

    For us, taking care of the planet is as important as taking care of the hides that arrive at our facility. In our hands, leather is not a byproduct; it is a precious material that we handle with the utmost care to create unique pieces.

    We Are Responsible and Take Action

    Fast fashion is a problem for the environment, accounting for 8% to 10% of global carbon emissions. This is why our movement aims to address the impacts generated by fast fashion.

    The solution lies in the hands of everyone—both producers and consumers. With Leather for Good, we want consumers to buy timeless pieces that have the ability to endure over time and be passed down. We promote circular fashion through restoration workshops where you can bring your piece and give it a second life.

    Leather is a material that adapts to second chances; its greatest virtue is its longevity. When you acquire a leather piece, it is for life. Yes, fashion changes, but at Vélez, we ensure that we create timeless pieces that remain relevant over the years.

    Shop Responsibly, Shop Colombian

    Being conscious of what we consume is fundamental; this is the basis of responsible fashion. Where does the clothing I wear come from? What is behind the production processes? These are questions every consumer should ask themselves before acquiring a garment. Our goal is for people to consume products with a lower environmental impact and be aware of the processes behind each one.

    Leather items, for example, have a longer usage and durability; they are pieces that do not expire with the seasons—they are eternal. In our case, when you shop at Vélez, you are not only buying environmentally responsible garments, but you also hold a handcrafted piece created by leather experts who ensure every detail is cared for.

    Leather for Good is an invitation to more conscious fashion consumption. We want you to be a validator of what we do for and with the planet when you wear a Vélez garment—a movement that generates a positive impact on the planet.
