Should we wear stuff made by harming other living beings

Hare Krishna to all the devotees 

All glories to srila Prabhupada 

Many times, especially during office works we have to wear shoes and belts which are made up of leather, which is made by killing other beings or many other things. It is alright to wear them when they are made up by harming animals, but also this is not much of an alternative available.

    I don't know a single office where it is mandatory to wear leather. Some work places like factories, refineries, mines have mandatory safety shoes , but leather NOT mandatory.

    Alternates are available.
