• For our Made in Mexico pieces, leather is sourced from the TIFF-certified local market of Tizimín, Yucatán.
• This leather is a by-product of the region’s agricultural heritage, honoring a philosophy of full-circle resource use.
• The TIFF certification, granted by Mexico’s Ministry of Agriculture (SAGARPA), ensures responsible and ethical livestock practices.
• Dyed following processes that blend a century of artisanal expertise with modern, eco-friendly techniques, using AZO-free, closed-loop processes to protect water sources.
• 80% of the tanning process relies on tree bark, using ancestral, natural methods.
• The remaining 20% is completed with gentle vegetable-based dyes.
• Made in Mexico
• Crafted by hand, honoring age-old techniques and the raw, organic nature of leather. Variations in tone, texture, and stitching are not imperfections - they are the signature of true craftsmanship and part of what makes every garment unique.
• Specialist Spot Dry Cleaning | Due to the delicate composition and artisanal construction of these timeless designs, we recommend specialist spot dry cleaning only when absolutely necessary. Harsh treatments may compromise the natural qualities of the leather and fabric. We encourage mindful care to preserve the integrity and longevity of your piece.
