We use Wagyu beef raised in the Japanese climate.
This is a form that allows you to get your hands on these precious animals that have been carefully raised on contracted farms in Japan, without leaving any waste behind.
We want to treasure things that can be produced domestically in Japan.
KYOTO Leather was born from this feeling.
Each raw hide is tanned by hand by a craftsman to turn it into leather.
"Himekawa Yuzen®" has been optimally adjusted for dyeing and processing through many years of research and development.
This natural material has the ideal thickness, hardness, and heat resistance for various processes, including Kyo-Yuzen.
Leather dyeing is a term that is not commonly heard. Until now, leather dyeing has been limited to vivid colors like blue and pink, or standard colors like brown and black. At KYOTO Leather, we have used our uniquely developed techniques to apply the beautiful Japanese dyeing techniques cultivated in the production of kimonos to leather. The colors and patterns proposed by KYOTO Leather are a new tool for Japanese people to express their individuality in the modern era.
