The narrator of this video is really good...he deserves to have his name added to the video description/information. Great voice and excellent delivery.

[@sharonireland7244]

I’m proud to say my Son works for this Company here in the Bay Area
MycoWorks just opened a new facility in Union South Carolina
The first of its kind in the Country
It’s quite fascinating to say the least

How about the breathability? It may isn't important for accessoire stuff, but when used for clothing or seating furniture, it is a key feature to be able to transmit moisture.

[@tejassingh760]

Intellectual ☕😂

[@johnconnolly28]

My guess is: Since it is still a woven type of structure and finished very much the same as leather it maintains a similar wicking capability as well as the ability to be waterproofed. It can also be grown to different specifications depending on the intended application.

[@arwarts1985]

Wow! I mean just wow!
This is actually very revolutionary and also needs so much more exposure!
How does this channel has so much less subscribers and likes.

[@AudioFileZ]

Any one remember in the 60's DuPont came out with Corfam? It was a huge failure that took almost a decade to die adding to the misery. The leather-like product made by MycoWorks unlike DuPont's Corfam is based on a natural organic fiber. I would think this has promise.

[@meissner14]

Can't wait until they start making mushroom steel.

[@giacomofrattini4456]

May i suggest investigating Oyster mushroom leather?
Cheaper, fast grower, straw based substrate, aggressive colonizer, temperature friendly (he doesn't need freezer shocks).
And agaricus bisporus leather

[@giacomofrattini4456]

I mean.... Reishi grows preferably on hard wood substrates, which demands huge quantities of woodchips from trees to grow... There are possibilities for reishi mycelium to thrive in straw based substrates which need nutritional additions...
Oyster mushroom instead can grow also on plastics!!!

[@tribemayamex]

holad makes leather like material with mango pulp.

[@carmelabiantsoumba3954]

Hello, how can we purchase?? I'm deeply interested in the mushroom fabrics

[@agrippanyagwaya2308]

Show us how it is done

[@Guerra3dp]

Visiting Florida soon for some leather🐊 hopefully their will be a shop with some samples

[@ronymohammad101]

This will certainly save millions of life one-day Inshallah..best wishes
Love 💕 for all...tnx

[@jimjames5416]

Does it have any of the pleasing characteristics of fruit leather?

[@baconghoti]

This is a vapid and empty video. No substance at all. You show that material testing equipment exists and then present zero testing with it. What a waste of time.

[@davidpayant8684]

I agree. Show us the testing data! How does this product compare in strength and durability to real leather. How does it react to water? Does it sew well? 🐝🐝

[@kavinaleandran4093]

How about the mold growth when you contain foods? specially at the humid and wet conditions?

[@m.micola6181]

What's the long-term affect of being around this material health wise?

[@connorpayne7324]

I doubt it's much if any, it's dead mushroom fibres

[@patrickbureau1402]

...but how does it taste with cheese & pepperoni on a pizza ...
!🇨🇦

[@ddhqj2023]

Always one troll who can't give up the idea of abusing animals. And the other side of that coin is that he doesn't care about the environment. Self identifier.

[@user-rp8mc1de3b]

i like it

[@holzmann8443]

I'm sure you guys aren't gonna ghost with investor money like every single other eco technology company, right?

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Already predicted as a subspace transportation network on Star Trek Discovery 🤣
Cheers

[@joepeeer4830]

❤❤❤

[@EduardQualls]

There's no such thing as "mushroom leather." It's *_mushroom-based, industrial pseudo-leather._*

[@idrinkwaterdaily]

🤓 "um actually there is no such thing as fruit leather its just mashed up dried fruit 🤓🤓🤓🤓" People can call things what ever they want nobody owns the right to the word leather

[@xeno942]

Do you also protest about "peanut butter" when you're making a sandwich?

[@skysquid2]

I think they went under.

[@buinessname1249]

Nope!!!!

[@timothychildsT8]

@@buinessname1249 oh good. why did they auction off their entire Berkley plant, which I bought some stuff from? I really hope they are still around. I love what they do.
