[A bag that expresses KALEIDOSCOPE's "smartness"] When I started making leather bags, I made a bag that I envisioned, "I wish I could make a bag like this." I named this series "SUI".

In fact, even if they are labeled as "genuine leather goods", their prices vary greatly. The difference in price depends on the design and manufacturing process, but it is not uncommon for the same genuine leather to have a difference of 10 times or more even when comparing the "leather material cost". Why are there so many differences? Here's why. There are two main methods of making leather. "Chrome tanning" and "vegetable tanning". Currently, most of the leather on the market is leather tanned using chemical ingredients called “chrome tanning”. Chrome tanned leather has the advantage of a relatively uniform surface finish, flexibility and heat resistance. In addition, the cost is low because it can be finished in large quantities in a short time, but it is also a leather that does not easily change over time. Scratches and stains over time remain unchanged and appear as "deterioration". In other words, [chrome tanned leather is a material suitable for mass production, and the leather is most beautiful when finished]. On the other hand, leather that is tanned using the astringency of plants, called "vegetable tanning," is called "tanned leather." It takes a long time to finish, so the cost is high, and it is hard to say that it is a stable material. It can be said that [Nume leather is made using an old method that takes time and cost, but it is not perfect when you hold it in your hand, but you will grow to love it over a long period of time]. What you are looking for in a material called leather, isn't it "a material that can be used for a long time"? “Since you have a leather product, we want you to choose a leather that you can enjoy the change of using for a long time.” Based on this idea, KALEIDOSCOPE's works are produced with a focus on "tanned leather". [If you are looking for an intact leather product, please refrain from purchasing] Since it is natural leather, there are natural scars and unevenness. Large scratches are avoided, but please understand some small scratches. The appearance of the grain and the unevenness of the scratches are different one by one. If you think of it as a "scratches", you may be concerned, but this is also a proof that this leather was alive, "the only pattern". I think that it is unique to handmade and real tanned leather that you can enjoy the scratches and unevenness as "your own thing". *Although we have taken and adjusted the colors as faithfully as possible to the texture of the actual product, there may be differences in the color of the actual product due to the computer environment. please note that. *Genuine leather has slight differences in texture depending on the part, natural worm-eaten marks, and lineage.
