Material pearls that you can find with us

- LWG-certified leather (e.g. Högl ): Processing without aggressive chemicals, gentle on the skin and nature.
- Tencel a ECONYL® ( Högl , Wonders ): Tencel is soft, light and breathable. ECONYL® is nylon made from recycled fishing nets. Great combinations for shoes and clothing.
- Gore-Tex membranes: Water doesn't stand a chance, but the foot can breathe. Ideal for women's comfort without compromise.
- EcoVero viscose ( TUZZI , MONARI , DORIS STREICH , FRANK WALDER ): A natural alternative to classic viscose with a lower ecological footprint.
- Certified cottons and eco-blends ( Para Mi ): Strong, sober and comfortable. Great pants that don't smell after the third wear.
- Vegan leather and recycled linings ( PEPE Moll ): Stylish handbags that don't burden nature and keep up with the modern woman.

- Merino wool ( Cat Noir ): Merino wool is a natural material that is exceptionally soft, warm and breathable at the same time.
I have selected every material that you will find in Leda with regard to how it will be worn today and how it will leave a mark tomorrow.
