Sustainable What is a sustainable replacement for synthetic leather (PU) which can be used to construct a ballerina flat?

Question by : What is a sustainable replacement for synthetic leather (PU) which can be used to construct a ballerina flat?
I would like to find a material which can be used to manufacture the upper of a ballerina flat that is sustainable (preferably biodegradable). This material should not be very porous, as the shoes should be water resistant, and attractive looking.

For the sole, I am considering using recycled car tire rubber, however if anyone has any other recommendations I would love to hear them as well!
