TBM ... is there a niche vegan market for flying-jackets and leathers certified as from cows and sheep that died of old age? .. stops being animal exploitation and becomes prudent recycling! 🙂 ... as you say there are many good alternatives to animal skin for biking gear these days ....Mrs Image was a dedicated Belstaff wearer back in the day but now has some indestructable impervious nylon gear ... still in black though, far too old-school and set in her ways for hi-viz!! ... little risk-taking rebel that she is!! 🙂

I think it would be very niche
Yeah, the textile stuff is really good these days - I've been wearing Kevllar bike jeans for many years but the the stuff these days is virtually identical to normal denims, and the Ghost armour is almost undetectable.You do get what you pay for though - mine are near £200 a pair.....
