Alpenleder Document folder

Elegant document bag made of buffalo leather. Unique document bag for a professional impression. This item is crafted from a single piece of buffalo leather with a thickness of about 1.4 to 1.8 mm. It provides ample space for a tablet, sales documents, business cards, card-sized pockets, a pen holder, and an A4 writing pad. With the removable ring mechanism, you can customize the document bag to suit your individual needs. Everything is beautifully crafted from high-quality buffalo leather.

Alpenleder exclusively works with "full-grain leather." 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 so-called "open" leathers that cannot hide their imperfections through structural embossing or color, but stand true to their origin. Each individual hide is examined by a specialist to determine its suitability for the 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 exclusively use 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 feel, water resistance, patina, and intense color tone are achieved through boiling in pure vegetable fat.

The leather remains open-pored and retains its natural properties, such as the pull-up effect, which fills in scratches and scuffs through rubbing. Alpenleder bags become more beautiful the longer they are used.
