Sustainability

Sustainability is an ongoing journey.

We realise we have a long way to go and we face new challenges every day, but we are  committed to be a responsible fashion business focused on designing and making products which maintain their quality and relevance over time.

Sustainability starts with making decisions to create products that last a long time both in their craftsmanship and design. We are not interested in creating products that promote a short lived trend. For every product we make we carefully consider the aesthetic, quality, functionality and sustainability attributes of the materials we source,leather is our core material, leather we use is from tanneries rated gold by the Leather Working Group.

We are not a vegetarian brand, we are committed to upholding the best animal welfare standards and as such there are certain materials or fibres we do not use because they pose a significant risk.

Leather is an attractive natural and biodegradable material with a long history of tradition, craft, and luxury. Its durability and reparability mean it can be used for a long time if cared for and preserved adequately. So long as the meat industry exists, stopping using leather as a by-product would be wasteful. Aros provides repurpose service, which is free for the members, to extend products’ lifetime by repurposing products. Customers have right to repurpose their bags in post-purchase stages.
