isnt there this mushroom based fakeleather stuffthingie?
this for example:
https://mylo-unleather.com/material/
ok the animation is kinda gross... if you find fungi gross, but i think these are just fun little guys also, i guess its more of a thing in the future when there is more competition in the market of mycelium based textiles or whatever and prices arent that crazy..
What the fuck… devilstrand from Rimworld is real??
Your mom is real, she’s nice and did a good job making you
I have no idea what this means lmao
I made a your mom joke
But instead of berating her. I complimented her and you
well, i havent tried that stuff myself so cannot speak about their properties, bu~ut looking at the pictures.... did they just glue the stuff on a pair of pants? ._.
I've looked at some plant based leather alternatives, and most of them mostly contain polyurethane or a similar plastic. Additionally, they tend to be not very durable.
cool, but mushrooms arent plants
Right, forgot we're talking about mushrooms, but the same applies.
i havent seen either type myself, just heard of mycelium based leathers existence and thought to share.
and check my other comment too, mylo looks more decorative than anything on their website, with patches glued on a pair of pants... idk what that is supposed to be telling the viewer, but surely it isnt "leather pants"
There is a site that sells hand made hats made out of mushroom leather.
