For our bags we use 100% genuine cow leather.
"Vegetable tanned leather" refers to the tannage, or the method of tanning the cowhide into leather. It’s called “vegetable” because of the natural tannins used in the tanning process, like tree bark.
For our products we only use vegetable tanned leather, dyed with anilines to give them color.

The vegetable tanning process results in a thicker leather, that turns soft with use. It also tends to age better and develops a rich patina over time.
Please note that vegetable tanned leather tends to oxidize when exposed to light, air, wind. This may cause the Tan and Forest colors to become darker and even brownish.
Also, as we use anilines to dyed the leather and give it color, in some occasions, this can generate the transmission of Burgundy and Black color when rubbing against the garments.

CARE

We recommend to give your bag the regular use. 
The materials we use are resistant and gets better with use! 
You can also expose the bag to the sun light and you will see how it takes a more intense color. 
Please try to avoid managing the bag when wearing hands cream or oils, as the leather generally absorbs this products, leaving darker stains on the bag.

Don't worry! We recommend to soak a cloth in water and wipe over the entire surface of the bag to even out the tone. Let it dry at room temperature. 

We recommend washing the colored handles by hand with a neutral soap. You can tumble dry it on a gentle cycle or let it dry at room temperature.
