Never understood the leather/fur hate. But I'm also not vegetarian.

It's supremely bad as a product, the origin doesn't actually matter?

Smells, stiff, needs constant care, (comparatively) complex to repair, it just has virtually no upsides. It doesn't even last long unless you're comparing really high-quality leather to really low-quality cotton or something like that.

And that's why it has had no use throughout human history whatsoever. /s

Do you also have an opinion on timber smelling bad and be completely useless with no upsides?
