PLANT-BASED LEATHER JACKET BONASA

Think of a powerful, subtle silhouette with curved lines flowing like old paths traced anew—a statue softened by ease, offering freedom of movement.
Bonasa is made in Lithuania.
It’s Bonasa, a quiet force grounded in nature, almost lost to time —symbol of resilience, survival, and the beauty of what remains. Shaped by sound of the past but open to the present, it moves between structure and ease, adapting with quiet grace, holding space for freedom and form without demanding either.

*derived from the waste products of the olive oil industry (olive pomace & other olive tree biomass).
BALSAIS garments are made from exceptionally rare plant-based materials, and as such, PROFESSIONAL DRY (NON-WATER-BASED) CLEANING is the only safe cleaning method. Washing, tumble drying, bleaching, or ironing can alter the shape, texture, or color, and may change the essence of the piece itself. To preserve its integrity, we recommend no more than one professional dry clean per year, unless a visible stain demands attention.
Leather
Leather counterpart is crafted from olive tree bio-waste—specifically olive pomace, moisture solid residue obtained after extracting oil from olives.
Typically a source of environmental harm—polluting water, degrading soil, and disrupting local ecosystems—this byproduct is transformed into a material with up to 70% USDA-certified bio-based content, reducing carbon impact more than sixfold compared to conventional leathers or synthetics, derived entirely from patroleum.
