Why Choose Leather?

Why choose leather?

Beauty: leather can look and feel rich and luxurious. And many leather products become more beautiful and interesting with age; in fact, the more you use some leather articles, the more it acquires a unique character all its own.

Comfort: leather is comfortable because it can absorb moisture such as perspiration and it breathes. Its fibrous construction has memory and shapes to your own use over time, be it a jacket, footwear, bag or wallet tucked into a pocket.

Practicality: leather offers protection from wind and cold and can be made resistant to rain and snow. It is durable and can usually be easily cleaned Quality leather is often made into products that are timeless, fashionable classics that will last a long time.

Important information for those who think that animals are killed for leather. . .

What is the connection of leather and the meat industry? Leather from cattle, sheep, goat and pig are a by-product of the meat industry.
98% of the leathers are made from these four animals. Farmers do not raise cattle for their hides to
turn into leather as the value of a steer/cow hide is generally only 8% of the total animal’s value.
Farmers raise cattle for their meat or milk with the hide as a by-product that must be turned into another value-added product or eaten. Leather is currently the best way to up-cycle hides from the meat industry and saves global landfill but is versatile enough to be used in a range of products from soft gloves to comfortable footwear to hard wearing furniture and contemporary clothing.
