Vegan Belts For Men: 5 Ethical Brands

From Melbourne, to Europe and to the USA - there are brands out there making beautiful, ethical belts for the world.

Not made from animals? ✔️
Fair working conditions? ✔️
Environmentally conscious? ✔️

Yep, these five vegan fashion brands tick all the right boxes. If you're hunting for a new, animal-friendly belt, we've got you covered.

These are handmade ethically in a small family-run factory in Portugal, using high quality, soft Italian microfibre. They're also PETA approved vegan.


Bhava is a New York based innovative footwear brand, which sources the highest quality artisan, organic, recycled and cruelty-free materials. It was founded only 3 years ago by Francisca Pineda, who also teaches Ethical Fashion and Sustainable Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in NY.

Her belts are hand made in Spain, using luxury Italian materials.


These belts are made under Ethical Fair Trade Practices in India, by Los Angeles based clothing & accessories store The Vegan Collection. We love that this company donates 25% of profits to organisations that are advocates for animals.  


4. Noah

Celebrating La Dolce Vita, vegan-style. Noah create high-quality accessories and shoes, which are hand-crafted in Italy. A high proportion of these belts are also made with recycled content.

You can watch a gorgeous little video on their philosophy and production processes here.


True to our Melbourne hearts, we had to include this Fitzroy-based company in our list.
Even if we didn't call Melbourne home though, Vegan Wares would still rightly earn its place here. This brand has been hand-making shoes, belts and wallets in Melbourne since 1995, which has earned it the reputation it has today for highly durable and comfortable cruelty-free products.

These belts here are made from high quality and durable Italian microfibre.

By Henrietta

Henrietta is the 'daughter' half of the Future King & Queen mother-daughter duo, and is the face you'll find in front of a camera. She strives to live gently on this earth, and to make the world a kinder, fairer place.

Henrietta is a recent graduate with a degree in Commerce + a diploma in French, and has a passion for using business skills to drive positive social change. She works in ethical fashion, and is also a model for ethical and sustainably minded brands (drop her a line here if you'd like to work with her). 

After being vegetarian for many years, and gradually transitioning towards veganism, she attended a panel discussion 2 years ago on the dairy industry (held by Voiceless). From then on, it made complete sense to commit to a fully vegan lifestyle, as a way of being compassionate towards animals, the environment and people.

It was then a natural progression to consider the impacts of her other daily decisions, and so her interest in ethical fashion and sustainably minded living in general was born.
