Vegetable tanned leather
This bag is made from high-quality cowhide that has been tanned mainly with vegetable substances. It is then treated with oil, which gives the leather a natural and rough vintage look. This way, it retains its natural character and will acquire a beautiful patina over time.
Due to the high fat content, the eco-leather may shed slightly at first. However, this is purely vegetable and will completely disappear with a normal wash.
Fairly produced in India
The bags and accessories are produced in a controlled and certified Fair Trade company in India. This means, among other things, that there is no child labour and no social exploitation of employees and that the employees receive a fair wage. The company is a member of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO).
