All products are made from whole hides, with leather thickness ranging from 1.2 mm to 3.5 mm. Alpenleder uses both cowhide and buffalo leather. These are open leathers that cannot hide their imperfections through structural embossing or color but stand by their origin. Each individual hide is inspected by a specialist to determine its suitability for bags. The leathers currently used by Alpenleder are all vegetable-tanned: In the tanning process, no toxic chrome salts are used as is common practice; instead, the leather is tanned with tree bark. They also use only azo-free dyes from European production for the colored leathers. For the majority of the collection, they even completely forgo chemical dyes and preserve the leather solely with oil. The unique texture, impregnation, patina, and intense color tone are achieved through boiling in pure vegetable fats. The leather remains porous and retains its natural properties, such as the pull-up effect, which allows scratches and scuffs to be filled in by rubbing. Alpenleder bags become more beautiful the longer they are used.
