When it comes to music, every detail matters — from the sound of an instrument to the strap that holds it. For musicians who value both performance and ethics, vegan guitar straps offer a way to play with heart, without compromise. Across Europe, several brands are redefining what it means to rock sustainably, combining craftsmanship, comfort, and cruelty-free design.
100% Vegan Brands
VTAR (United Kingdom)
Handmade in the UK, VTAR creates 100% vegan guitar, bass, and banjo straps with a strong focus on originality and craftsmanship.
Their mission is simple yet powerful: to provide musicians with beautiful, high-quality, animal-friendly straps made entirely from vegan materials. From classic designs to the Jimmy Page Collection, VTAR proves that compassion and rock ’n’ roll can go hand in hand.
Rock ’n Soul (Netherlands)
At Rock ’n Soul, music and sustainability strike the perfect chord. Founded by musician and designer Rick van Hoorn, the brand handcrafts vegan guitar straps using innovative materials like cork and Piñatex®, made from pineapple leaf fibers.
Every strap is lightweight, durable, and created with purpose. Rock ’n Soul also engages local communities, working with people facing employment barriers and using local suppliers to keep production ethical and personal. “Because I care,” says Rick — and it shows in every stitch.
Brands With Extensive Vegan Lines
RICHTER (Germany)
Germany’s RICHTER is known for premium-quality straps trusted by top artists, from Matt Heafy (Trivium) to Mark Hoppus (blink-182) and Nergal (Behemoth). While not an entirely vegan brand, Richter offers a dedicated Vegan Line, crafted for musicians who seek excellence without animal-derived materials.
These straps are celebrated for their durability, ergonomic comfort, and minimalist aesthetics — proving that ethical design can easily meet professional performance standards.
RightOn! (Spain)
A pioneer in sustainable design since 2014, RightOn! Straps combines cutting-edge innovation with a strong environmental ethos. The brand’s R.E.C. (RightOn! Environmental Commitment) initiative ensures that 99% of materials are recycled or certified — from natural fibers to recovered marine plastics.
Their Vegan Collection is fully free of animal-derived components and offers superior comfort with features like the RightOn! Adjustment System (RAS), latex padding, and integrated pick pockets. Proudly made in Spain, RightOn! proves that sustainability and superior craftsmanship are a perfect duet.
Whether you’re performing on stage or practicing at home, these European brands show that great design doesn’t have to come at the planet’s expense.
Play consciously — and let your music carry a message worth hearing.
