Unique · Sustainable · Handcrafted · Responsibly-Made Recycled Leather Bags & Wallets
Designed in Barcelona and handcrafted by a small group of artisans. Each one of soruka's one-of-a-kind leather bags and wallets is created by using leftover or scraps of leather to reduce the environmental impact while preserving handmade traditional techniques and supporting the fair trade movement.
It has been estimated that more than 500K of tones of leather are wasted every year. Traditional leather industry only uses the central part of the hide for their products, which results in a 60% of the leather produced not being used and often ending up in landfills and rivers of our planet, creating a huge environmental problem.
At Soruka they decided not to be part of the problem but part of the solution. Their mission is to create beautiful timeless collections while preserving traditional techniques, supporting the sustainable fashion and the fair trade movement. Their aim is to be a zero waste company, so try to use every scrap of material. With great effort and joy, their artisans select the cutting and the right colors in order to transform waste into a beautiful bag.
The expert artisans craft each piece by hand using unused leather that otherwise will be wasted. The result is a beautiful one-of-a-kind handcrafted piece made with the best quality leather and environmentally friendly.
