About the Piñatex
We have been working on the new Piñatex Premim 1.0 for almost a year and a half, now it is finally here, delivery from January 2020. It is a completely new model, of course with a new robust button, a completely new strap construction, especially worked by our shoemaker and new adhesive process glued under perfect even atmospheric pressure with solvent-free water-based adhesive. Chala Pinatex changes everything because they are made from the first vegan material manufactured from plant fibers (Pineapple leaves, a waste material) which shares many of the desired properties of leather. It is robust, extraordinary, sustainably sourced and absolutely animal free, it is strong, versatile, breathable, soft, lightweight, flexible you can easily imprint it and it can be sown and cut well. The delivery takes place in a very high quality organic cotton gym bag.
