Vegetable Tanned
Not all leather is made equal.
The leathers in this workshop come from tanneries across Italy, all members of the Consorzio Vera Pelle Italiana. A consortium founded in 1994 to protect traditional vegetable tanning.
Vegetable tanning uses natural tannins from bark and plants. The process takes months, not hours.
Chrome tanning uses heavy metal salts and toxic chemicals. It produces 80% of the world’s leather in 24 hours. The wastewater contaminates soil and water for decades.
Vegetable tanned leather breathes, moulds to your foot, develops patina and can be resoled and repaired for life.
Chrome tanned leather cannot. It ends in landfill.

Both sides of the same hide.
Grain side down, flesh side up.
This is what roughout means. The leather gets turned inside out so the corium faces the world instead of the smooth grain.
This hide is from Conceria Lo Stivale in Tuscany, Italy. Full vegetable tanned, full grain.

Lo Stivale is a member of the Consorzio Vera Pelle Italiana, a consortium of Tuscan tanneries united by a strict commitment to traditional vegetable tanning.
No shortcuts, no industrial compromise.

The colour is midnight blue, sitting somewhere between slate and grey depending on the light.
It can be overdyed by hand to a richer blue if a client wants more depth.
The napped surface takes dye beautifully.
This leather is going into an upcoming commission.

If you want something built from it, now is a good time to get in touch.

7inch Chapparos on the 1546 lasts, made out of reverse Cloe horsebutt. The customer requested that I use as much as possible of shell part, especially for the vamps, so I selected a hide that allowed me so. That was a good call cause it turned super nice. Looking forward to seeing these rolls forming with wear.
The uppers and bottoms were hand dyed in medium rust brown.

Sole: leather half sole .
Heel: Dr. sole black half heel on a woodsman.
Hardware: solid brass
Construction: 360 degree handwelted.

As you might know, I’m now in Germany. I found a new place for the shop, right in the center of Potsdam, a small city only 30km from Berlin. The shop is a physical place where people can come in to talk boots, get their measurements done or drop their old boots for a repair. I invite you to visit us if your are in the area.
