Is Bronx and Banco Vegan? What the Croc, Suede and Feather Pieces Are Made Of

Short answer: most of it, not all of it. Bronx and Banco uses no animal leather and no real fur. The croc embossed jackets, pants and shorts are polyurethane. The suede pieces are a polyurethane suede. The teddy coats, the faux fur coat and the faux mink shorts are polyester. Two things stop the range from being fully vegan. The feather trims are ostrich feather, and a few linings carry a silk blend. We read the brand's own composition labels for this guide, so you can shop by what the garment is made of.

The vegan croc

The Fall Winter 2026 croc pieces are listed by the brand as 100% polyurethane in the shell, with a polyester and elastane lining. A few of the pants use a 70% polyurethane and 30% viscose shell. That covers the Vegan Croc Embossed Jacket, the belted dark brown jacket, the jogger, the horseshoe pant and the burgundy shorts. The finish is a deep croc emboss with a high shine. It wipes clean with a damp cloth and should never go to a dry cleaner.

The suede

The Hayden Suede Belted Jacket, in tan and in dark brown, the Suede Barrel Pant and the Suede Shorts are all a 100% polyurethane suede. The label calls it suede, and the nap reads like suede, but no animal is involved. Treat it like the croc: brush the nap, keep it dry, store it on a wide hanger.

The fur

The Long Teddy Coat, the Cropped Teddy Jacket, the Faux Dark Brown Fur Coat and the Faux Mink Camel Brown Shorts are polyester pile over a polyester lining. The faux fur cuffs on the bodysuits and the collar on the off-the-shoulder sweatshirt are the same. None of it is animal fur.

The feather

This is where the answer turns. The feather pieces, which are the house signature, use real ostrich feather. The brand lists it as 100% feather in the trim layer. That covers the Marlowe feather bomber jackets, the feather-cuffed blouses and minis, and the velvet maxi with a feather hem. If you keep a vegan wardrobe, these are the pieces to leave.

The silk

Most Bronx and Banco gowns are polyester with an elastane lining. A handful use a silk blend in the lining, for example the Estelle mini dresses, which have a 60% polyester and 40% silk lining under a viscose and cotton shell. Silk is an animal fibre, so check the composition line on the product page if that matters to you. Luxury Handbags prints the brand's composition on every product.

A quick reference

How Luxury Handbags labels it

Every Bronx and Banco product page on Luxury Handbags carries the composition line as the brand wrote it, plus a care line for that material. The croc and suede pieces say wipe clean and do not dry clean. The feather pieces say dry clean by a specialist who handles feather. Read the line before you buy and again before you clean.

For the pieces themselves, start with the Fall Winter 2026 edit. For fit, read the size guide. If you are weighing the label against its neighbours, brands like Bronx and Banco and Bronx and Banco vs Rachel Gilbert cover the field.
