Gifts

 A few things. Every LaBante bag ships with a reusable dust bag. Every wallet arrives in a white linen gift box with a gold embossed logo, no extra wrapping needed. Several pieces include hidden messages inside ("And she persisted.." or "I'm here for you"). And the LaBante x Iris Scott Artist Collection bags feature hand-painted straps that make each one uniquely one of a kind. Every product is also PETA-Certified and free from animal products. gifts And because every purchase plants a tree, you are not giving one gift but two: one to them, one to the planet.

The Mayfair Set is the most complete option: the Mayfair Shoulder Bag and Regents Park Mini Wallet together in a single gift box. For art lovers, the Danai Backpack or Iris Shoulder Bag from the LaBante x Iris Scott Artist Collection are hard to beat. For something more compact, any LaBante wallet arrives gift-boxed and ready to give.

Yes, entirely. Every product is PETA-Certified and made from plant-based materials throughout, including glues and dyes. No animal leather, nothing hidden. It is one of the things that makes LaBante a safe recommendation for someone whose values you want to respect.

A collaboration between LaBante London and Iris Scott, a US impressionist artist known for her finger-painting technique. She hand-paints the strap on every bag in the collection, making each one genuinely unique. The bags ship in white gift boxes with cotton dust bags and the hidden message "And she persisted.." inside. The collection has been featured in Vogue and Harper's Bazaar.

A passport holder and matching keychain, both in plant-based vegan leather, presented in a white linen box with a gold embossed LB logo. Plastic-free packaging, no extra wrapping needed, and a genuinely thoughtful cruelty-free gift for travellers or anyone about to start something new.

Yes. LaBante London has dedicated gift edits on the site: Gifts Under 100 and Gifts Under 200. Every product across both edits is PETA-Certified and PVC-free, so there is no trade-off in quality or ethics at either price point.

The gift range spans crossbodies, totes, backpacks, shoulder bags, laptop bags, and wallets, so there is a price point for every occasion. Every piece is handcrafted in plant-based LaBante Leather, PETA-approved vegan, and covered by a one-year warranty. The brand has been featured in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Cosmopolitan, and Elle, and was exhibited at the V&A Museum Handbag Exhibition.

Plant-based vegan leather performs comparably to genuine leather for everyday use when cared for correctly. LaBante bags are designed for long-term daily carry: the exteriors hold their shape and surface finish well over time, and the brand backs this with a 1-year warranty on all products. The key differences are care (no conditioning oils needed, just wipe with a damp cloth) and environmental impact: no livestock farming, no toxic chemical tanning, and in the case of LaBante leather, biodegradable at end of life.

The plant-based leather and microfibre exteriors handle light rain and everyday splashes well and wipe clean easily with a soft cloth. They are not designed for heavy rain or submersion. If caught in a downpour, wipe dry as soon as possible and allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Storing bags in the included dust bag between uses helps protect the surface finish over time.

With regular everyday use and proper care, a LaBante bag is built to last for several years. The plant-based leather is chosen for its durability as much as its sustainability credentials: wipe clean after use, store in the dust bag when not in use, avoid overloading. LaBante backs every product with a 1-year warranty and a 60-day no-questions-asked returns policy.

Yes, absolutely. LaBante bags look and feel like premium leather and are built to the same quality standard, with no animal products involved. Most people who receive one are genuinely surprised by how good it feels. And because every purchase plants trees, you are not giving one gift but two: one to them, one to the planet. It is the rare gift that lets you do good and feel good at the same time. The PETA Certification is a nice bonus, but you do not need to care about that to love the bag.

Standard PU (polyurethane) leather is made from petroleum-derived chemicals: a fossil-fuel product that does not biodegrade and is environmentally damaging to produce. LaBante uses two signature plant-based materials instead. LaBante plant-based leather is made from vegetable by-products. Blue Star is LaBante’s cruelty-free microfibre. Both are biodegradable and free from PVC and PU. No oil extraction, no livestock farming, no toxic tanning chemicals. LaBante also avoids PVC entirely across the range.

LaBante offers 60-day returns from the date of purchase, no questions asked, and a 1-year warranty on all products. Returns are free in the US.
