INVERSA Leathers

INVERSA Leathers

INVERSA Leathers was founded in 2020 with a mission to develop materials that solve an environmental crisis to protect biodiversity. We create authentic leather from destructive, non-native species, empowering the fashion community to heal the planet. We have created a portfolio of Invasive™ Leathers, each one addressing a unique human-induced crisis, to restore ecosystems around the world. Our first line of leather is created from the non-native lionfish, which has ravaged Earth's coral reefs across the Atlantic, from the Caribbean to the Mediterranean Sea. As longtime divers, our founders saw firsthand the devastation caused by the non-native lionfish and embarked upon a journey to protect and restore ecosystems through the power of material innovation and environmental education.
