You can use mushroom leather for anything for which you would use traditional leather of a similar thickness. Some of our favorite uses are in clothing, purses shoes, and other accessories. Extended exposure to rain or wetness, or extreme impact as in the case of a drum would be experimental uses at this point.
Caring for your mushroom leather is a breeze. Simply wipe it clean with a damp cloth and let it air dry completely before use. Avoid ironing, bleaching, machine washing, or tumble drying to preserve its natural beauty and integrity.
Made with less time, water, resources, and carbon footprint than conventional leather. Mylea™ actually sequesters carbon, since it is grown on agricultural waste that is otherwise typically burned in Indonesia. Mylea™ is the eco-friendly material you've been searching for.
