Have you tried to understand the hate? The movie Earthlings has a great segment on the leather trade.
Basically, PETA released a lot of videos about the worst of factory farming and pretended it's common place to skin animals live. Also the oil industry is so heavily subsidised often it's cheaper to get synthetic materials.
