Guest guest Posted November 14, 2000 Report Share Posted November 14, 2000 Dear Krsnendu Prabhu, PAMHO. AGTSP. If the animal is dead by natural causes then to use the skin is permitted. Otherwise, the use of leather will award great unfortunate Karmic rewards. Like you said there are many natural alternatives that can be used.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2000 Report Share Posted November 19, 2000 Dear Prabhus, PAMHO, AGTSP. Does anyone have any non-leather shoe substitutes for corporate types? After six months of experimentation with various substitutes, I very, very reluctantly bought some leather shoes, which for three years afterwards had had none of the various problems associated with the subs. I've been out of corporate America for about a year, but I'm just now jumping back in to another professional position. I still have the same shoes, but I'm looking into the future. I have the belt, bag and other accoutrement problems solved, but the shoe one is tough. Any ideas?
