Ring Belt - Vegan Leather

Our Gold Ring Belt is a wide belt with a solid gold colored buckle.

Our women's belts are sized accurately. Please measure yourself at the point of your body where you will normally wear your belt.  If you wear your belt higher, closer to your waist, your measurement will likely be smaller. If you wear your belt down towards your hips, the measurement will be larger.

Jeans and pants typically are sized small and do not provide an accurate measurement of your waist size. Generally, you should order a belt one to two sizes above your jeans size.

About the Designer

Doshi offers vegan leather handbags, briefcases, backpacks, belts and accessories. 

Doshi was founded to provide smart, fashionable and quality vegan products to people who have ethical, religious or environmental beliefs that lead them to seek vegan products. 

We are based in the suburbs of southern California but we'd like to think that we're not just part of just one city, state or even country. We want to be a part of lives in every place that people share our ideals for a better world. We believe that's everywhere.


Our Products:

We design our products to be practical and useful, we choose materials and construction methods that are meant to hold up to frequent use, we pay our suppliers for the more difficult work we demand, and we stand behind our goods.

Eco-friendliness and sustainability are a function of how long a product lasts and what materials it's made from. We will continue to push on every frontier until we make beautiful products that are beautiful, last long, and then disappear back into the earth when we are done using them..

Factories:

We visit the factories where we manufacture goods. We look for clean factories where we ask terrible amounts of questions to management to understand product construction, environmental practices and workers' well being.

Factories in the places we manufacture often have a variety of certifications to show social compliance. One of the most common is the Business and Social Compliance Initiative certification. We are pushing to have each factory BSCI audited.

Doshi and the Environment:

When we set about to make a product, we consider the materials being used, how the product is being made and look to find ways that we can make the product last. Synthetic materials have made huge strides in minimizing the resources used to create them. We do our best to find factories that purchase recycled base material and minimize the use of chemicals and solvents when making their materials.

Why not leather? Isn't it just a by product?

Studies show that the source of a great deal of the world's pollution comes from livestock. It's not the animals' fault. Humans just breed too many of them. The lifecycle of a cow involves great deals of resource consumption and waste production.

From our reading, studies and back of the envelope calculations, we believe that the carbon footprint needed to produce a bag or backpack from synthetic materials is vastly smaller than what is needed to produce the same bag using an equivalent amount of leather. Further, much of the leather found in mass produced goods is treated with petroleum based compounds at every step, from tanning to its final finish.
