This somehow seems contrary to the usual stance SG takes with PETA.

I have a Leather jacket from my cousin that passed away years ago. she got it when the Thriller album came out, and stood in line for hours with it on to get the record. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world!

I know I'm probably an alien from the planet Nerob, but leather has never really done much for me. Should I be concerned?

Leather is gross because its from dead animals.

Black leather looks fucking cool. And it's from dead animals (not cool).

This is but one among many moral conflicts we consumers are faced with.

Do they make Doc Martens in fake leather? I bought some 'vegan boots' once and the soles wore out quickly and the grommets fell out (cheaply made). I ended up going back to Docs. I've sometimes chosen to compromise my moral principles on aesthetic or utilitarian grounds. I guess you could call me a hypocrite.

sigh...

Vice

i usually like this. minus dead cow

i'm partial to plate.

the website says they don't do any leather free styles anymore.

I eat dead cow, so I might as well wear dead cow. Leather is cool

I agree.

I love the soft feel of leather. I've been in the market for a nice leather bomber jacket, but unfortunately all I can find 'round these parts is cheap reproduction jackets that likely won't last. Not much else wears like leather.
