Leather from CONCERIA WALPIER

Established in 1973 in San Miniato, Tuscany, Italy, Walpier Tannery has been in business for three generations and has a long tradition of making leather products based on their highly regarded vegetable tanning processes. The tannery uses only 100% rawhide leathers imported from France and is a member of Vera Pelle, Italy’s association of vegetable-based leather tanners.

Walpier's vegetable tanning is a traditional leather processing method handed down from father to son for centuries in the Tuscany region. The tanning process usually takes 40 days and is a process only practised by Italian tanners of the world.

In addition, leather products that undergo the vegetable-based tanning process continue to gradually tan over time according to the user's care, usage, style, etc., showing the user's lifestyle and making the product completely unique.

The Khaki Brown case of KANN MAX uses Walpier vegetable tanned leather.

This is Astell&Kern’s first-time using Mud leather, which is a leather product that contains a unique beauty with a strong, yet soft feel.

Mud leather is processed using raw hides from northern France that have narrow pores and excellent quality.

This high-quality, full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather undergoes minimal artificial post-processing which produces a beautiful, natural lustre while maintaining some of the original and natural markings. Since Mud is milled leather, the original grain is well preserved and remains true to its natural embossed texture. Although it is a very tough and durable leather, it has a unique feature of having a soft, smooth feel that is achieved by applying a light paraffin wax one time prior to milling.
