Mushroom leather (aka mycelium leather) is shaking up fashion as a sustainable, cruelty-free alternative to traditional leather. Made from fungi roots, it’s biodegradable, durable, and seriously luxe.
Big brands are on board. Stella McCartney dropped the Frayme Mylo™ Bag, a high-fashion piece made entirely from mycelium leather. Adidas reworked its iconic Stan Smiths with a mushroom-based upper, keeping the same classic look but slashing the carbon footprint. Even luxury designers are teaming up with MycoWorks to create sleek, sustainable handbags.
But it’s not just fashion getting a glow-up. Mycelium leather is popping up in furniture, car interiors, and even tech accessories like phone cases and laptop sleeves. With its eco-friendly credentials and premium feel, it’s proving that sustainability and style go hand in hand. The future of fashion is fungi, and honestly, it’s never looked better.
