This product is made of olive leather.

Olive Leather emerges from the olive pulp produced during olive oil manufacturing in Turkey. Unlike materials like PLA derived from resources with nutritional value, olive leather steers clear of such resources, enhancing the value of its bio-based composition.

Choosing olive leather over petroleum-based materials significantly reduces reliance on non-renewable resources. By doing so, support is extended to the olive industry, effectively repurposing waste that otherwise lacks alternative uses and would linger in nature for centuries.

The entire process involved in the creation of olive leather, from raw material production to the final product, occurs within a compact 100km radius. This localized production significantly minimizes the carbon footprint. It is durable, soft, and high-quality.

Prev stands for "Plant" and "Revolution", so you can guess what this brand excels in.

Eco-friendly: Many plant-based alternatives to leather use PU or other oil-based materials. Prev dares to innovate and uses materials such as apple leather, but also lesser-known vegan leather alternatives such as a material made from olives or tea waste.

Fair & local production: Prev's items are made in small Turkish factories under good working conditions.

Vegan: All products from Prev are vegan-proof.
