Vegetable tanned leather refers to the tannage, or method of tanning the cowhide into leather. Itโ€™s called โ€œvegetableโ€ because of the natural tannins used in the tanning process like tree bark. Vegetable tanning or veg tan as itโ€™s sometimes called, is one of the oldest methods of tanning known to man. It has literally been around for centuries. But less than 10% of the world’s leather is tanned this way today.” – Jackson Wayne
