Japan Smooth Leather

Sleek, glossy leather with a soft feel and natural texture

The premium cowhide used for A LEATHER's jackets. Made from domestic beef hides—a byproduct of the meat industry—it's chrome-tanned at a Himeji tannery, carefully dyed with aniline dyes, and finished with a glossy sheen. The result is a supple leather with a beautifully natural character.

The Look of Natural Leather

We have chosen to keep natural markings such as scars, wrinkles, veins, and pores on the cowhide to showcase the natural appearance of the leather in our products. This is one of the most distinctive features of our bags. The appearance of the leather will vary depending on the part of the hide and individual differences between animals. Through careful observation, you will uncover your leather product's unique, one-of-a-kind appearance.
