Our Leather
Hand+Built uses only the best leather to make it's leather goods. All of our hides are sourced from Wickett & Craig Tannery. They were founded in 1867 and are a world premiere vegetable tannery. They use a process called veg-tanning. This natural and eco-friendly process produces leather that is durable with a depth of color that develops a rich patina.
