We are not only consumers we are creators - We are constantly creating the world we live in by the choices we make. At Organic Leather it is our intention to return reverence to the practice of working with leather and to live in dominion with our animal friends and the earth. The world we choose to create is one we inhabit in full consciousness and integrity by actively honoring our sacred relationship to the land and her animals and in so doing respecting the artistry of our crafters and the style of our customers.

2. Problem
_ Conventional leather tanning has proven
to have disastrous effects on human and
ecological health (Cancers, water
pollution, death etc..)
_95% of US tanneries have moved their
operations overseas (primarily India and
China) to avoid environmental penalties

4. What is Organic Leather?
We have 2 grades of leather, “Eco-Leather” and “Organic Leather”. In the long term
we hope all our skins will be both organically raised and organically tanned. However
our Primary Focus is on the Tanning.
Eco-Leather - is organically Tanned; The tanning
process uses plant tannins, vegetable tannins or
smoke to cure the leather
Organic - is organically raised AND Organically
tanned. (From Animals that are humanely
raised and organically fed and tracked form
farm to finish.)
