Skin
The genuine leather which we use for our bags is a byproduct of the meat industry.
Thanks to specific production processes, we give new life to a product which otherwise would have to be disposed of, with a considerable impact on the environment.
The recycling
Recycling a waste product is part of the circularity, which is the ideal production and consumption model that aims to reduce the waste of natural resources.

The workings
The tanneries where we buy our leather use renewable energy and choose plant-based and enzymatic products for the production processes.
The supply chain
All of our bags are produced in Italy, thanks to a short production chain: we buy all the raw materials in Vicenza, where our production unit is based.
