The material for the Airpods Pro leather case comes from Italy and China. Together with the "Bruno" iPhone case, these are our only two products that are made in China. Why is that? In fact, there is not a single manufacturer in Germany or the whole of Europe that can do this fine, intricate and very delicate work. Even here, we make sure that the environment and climate are burdened as little as possible. We therefore offset the CO2 emissions generated by shipping with DHL GoGreen. Of course, this also applies to the manufacture of our products in Solingen.
We subject the leather used for the Airpods Pro leather case to a vegetable tanning process. Just like a conventional tanning process, the leather is made robust, scratch-resistant and durable. However, the plant-based process is environmentally friendly. You hardly need to worry about any allergic reactions to your skin either.
The tanned leather is pulled over the Airpods Pro leather case with a thickness of 0.3 mm without creasing. This process is called the "folded edge process". This work step is very delicate and requires extensive experience in handling leather. The corners are pleasantly rounded so that the case sits comfortably in the hand. To ensure that the Airpods Pro leather case arrives undamaged, it is packed in a "Ritzstülpschachtel" - made in Berlin. This also makes this product ideal for a gift.
