VEGETABLE TANNED LEATHER

Almost all of the leather we use are vegetable tanned. Due to this way of tanning, a lot of natural details are preserved on the leather surface making every piece absolutely unique. With high amount of natural oils, pieces will age beautifully
and develop over time. Taking care of your vegetable-tanned product is very important to make sure it will keep it's beauty for many years. Hydrate it every few months with a natural leather creme. Keep your piece out of heavy sunlight as this
may cause discoloration and keep your piece out of the rain.

KANGAROO

What makes this material unique is the strength that it will still retain after cutting it very thin.

This makes a lightweight leather perfect for the use in our gloves. It’s dense fibres and the animals living in

a harsh climate make the skins extremely durable. Kangaroo leather is known to be a sustainable choice since

they are hunted in the wild and need no agricultural resources compared to the average livestock industry.
