Leather

 

At the heart of our collection of leather bags, backpacks, and small leather accessories is a commitment to quality and tradition. We source every piece of leather from the renowned Tärnsjö Tannery in Sweden- one of the last remaining tanneries in the world to still embrace the age-old craft of vegetable tanning. This method is a labor of love, using natural tannins from trees and plants to slowly transform hides into durable, beautiful leather. The result? Leather that’s rich in character, with each piece telling its own unique story.

 

What’s more, the hides used at Tärnsjö are always sourced locally from Sweden, often from nearby farms. This not only ensures a minimal carbon footprint but also supports the local economy and upholds a cycle of sustainability. The tannery exclusively uses by-products from the local meat industry, meaning that no animal is ever raised solely for its hide.

 

One of the aspects we love most about working with natural leather is its individuality. Since leather is a natural material, no two pieces are ever exactly alike. You’ll notice slight variations in color and texture, which only add to the charm and exclusivity of each product. So when you invest in one of our leather items, you’re not just purchasing a bag or an accessory—you’re acquiring a one-of-a-kind piece that carries with it the heritage and craftsmanship of Swedish leatherworking.

 

At the end of the day, it's about more than just leather. It’s about connecting with something authentic, something that has a history and a future. We’re proud to offer products that are as unique as you are, and we can’t wait for you to experience the Tärnsjö difference for yourself. Whether you’re looking for a new everyday bag, a rugged backpack, or a small leather accessory, you’ll find that our commitment to quality is evident in every stitch and every detail. Explore our collection today and discover the beauty of Tärnsjö leather for yourself.
