We only use the best and most sustainable materials for our Apple leather cases
We combine high-quality leather with wool felt for our Apple leather cases . Incidentally, the folds of skin around the tails of the sheep are not removed (mulesing), as is usually the case! Sustainability and animal welfare are very important to us.
We also use organic cotton, PET recycled yarn and stainless steel hardware because we are aware of our responsibility towards the environment. That's why we regularly donate to environmental and other social projects.
For the sake of the environment and the future of our children, we take all environmental aspects into account and deliver your desired Apple leather case within Germany free of charge, climate-neutral and plastic-free with DHL Go Green! Returns are also free of charge.
Not all leather is the same - it depends on the tanning method
We only use vegetable-tanned, full-grain cowhide for our Apple leather cases because it is particularly environmentally friendly. In addition, we only use the best and most beautiful parts of the leather hide for our Apple leather cases. We source these completely hand-picked and vegetable-tanned from Northern Europe.
Our leather comes from suppliers in Tuscany and Barcelona. Both specialize in the production of ecologically valuable leather. The production process takes around 8 weeks and is carried out with the utmost care and respect for the environment, resulting in high-quality, fine leather.
Why do we value vegetable-tanned leather for our Apple leather cases?
This environmentally friendly method has been used successfully for hundreds of years. It is the most traditional and best method, using only natural tanning agents such as oak and spruce bark.
Compared to other methods, this tanning process takes around 30 - 60 days. Due to the time involved, the leather is unfortunately a little more expensive in the end, but very high quality and environmentally friendly. With our products, you are therefore not only buying something particularly fine, but also acting in an environmentally conscious way!
What is so special about vegetable-tanned leather?
As the Apple Case leather is only processed with natural tanning agents, it retains its naturalness. This not only makes it ecologically valuable, but it also looks fantastic, smells good and feels wonderful. Visually, it changes over time and acquires a beautiful patina as it darkens. At the same time, it becomes softer and softer with use.
The fact that we do not use chemical compounds in the tanning process also means that you do not have to worry about allergic reactions or irritation. Vegetable-tanned leather also remains breathable, which is why it is not only used by us, but also in the production of high-quality textiles and shoes.
Why do we not use chrome-tanned leather for our Apple leather cases?
Chrome tanning is standard nowadays because it provides an economic advantage in the mass production of goods. As the chemicals used react very quickly with the leather, these products can be produced, delivered and sold quickly and cost-effectively.
We expressly distance ourselves from this process, as it represents a major environmental burden. This type of production usually takes place in poorer countries, which then discharge the unfiltered chemical tanning liquid into their rivers.
This in turn leads to contaminated, toxic drinking water for humans and animals. This method can also produce toxic compounds that are carcinogenic and can cause allergic reactions on contact with the skin or through perspiration.
Caring for Apple leather cases
We love our products and you will definitely not want to give your Apple leather case away again! But you should make sure you look after this precious item carefully. The care is very simple:
