Leap® is a plant-based leather alternative with every quality of traditional leather but more beautiful.
Born by upcycling apple waste discarded in cider production, Leap® naturally saves time, energy and resources.
Our roadmap will show how we at Beyond Leather see a future made of food waste.
Today Leap® uses 84% bio-based ingredients, tomorrow we're working towards 100%, because the future of leather alternative is plant-based.
Leap samples are ready for you. Reach out to us to get access to our webshop and start working with Leap® by ordering our sample box or our 100x70cm prototyping sheets.

Experience a supple handle you’d expect from leather, made from apple.
We stay authentic to our raw material by refusing to add anything that’s not necessary. The coating layer is the only part of Leap® that contains a small amount of fossil fuel-derived ingredients, because it’s necessary to find a balance between performance and sustainability.
Our roadmap leads us to a 100% natural and waste-based leather alternative in the future.
Partly bio-based and partly fossil fuel-derived to increase durability.
Made of mostly apple waste and other eco-friendly ingredients, 100% plastic-free.
A Tencel backing that fulfills our high sustainability and performance standards.
Leap™ is created by Beyond Leather in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Inspired by the challenge to turn leather-making into a sustainable practice, we discovered the beauty in apple waste.
We apply our partners’ input in our development from the Leap™ look, feel, and performance to it’s end-of-life, because we listen.
We believe a fresh start and close communication is the only way forward in leather making.
