Ethically Sourced Leather

At first, we firmly rejected the idea of incorporating African leathers into our products. However, after reviewing government documentation outlining the critical role these leathers play in conservation efforts, we reconsidered.

Our research revealed a thorough and ethical process: when an animal perishes naturally or due to unavoidable circumstances, Game Wardens quickly step in. The meat is distributed to feed local villagers, and the hide is tagged and sent to a government-regulated tannery. Each hide is meticulously tracked to ensure compliance with strict ethical and conservation standards.

By choosing our products, you’re not just investing in quality—you’re directly supporting the wages of Game Wardens and funding anti-poaching initiatives that protect these majestic creatures and their habitats.
