Made in Portugal
Like our O.T. leather, this European-sourced leather undergoes a meticulous mechanical process that gives it a soft, fine, and supple feel. Tanned in Portugal, it uses fewer dyes than our conventional leather.
The tanneries supplying VEJA leathers are Gold certified by the Leather Working Group which promotes sustainable environmental practices.
