Bringing Vegtan Vibes to the U.S. and Beyond!

It’s not every day you pack up dozens of boxes of premium vegetable-tanned leather and head off to the Rocky Mountains, but that’s exactly what we did this past May.

We had the pleasure of attending the Sheridan Leather Craft Fair in Wyoming, USA, one of the most iconic gatherings in the leather world. This time, we weren’t just visiting, we were exhibiting! Alongside Moore & Giles, fellow fans of Olivenleder, we proudly presented our Vegtan-only collection to an incredible community of leather enthusiasts, hobbyists, and some of the finest tooling and carving masters out there.

Though Mike has been to Sheridan many times over his 35-year leather career, this was his first time behind the booth. And of course, nothing worth doing is ever easy: with tariffs shifting daily and international logistics full of surprises, getting our leather from Amsterdam, Germany, and the U.S. to Sheridan was a feat in itself. But we did it,  because great leather deserves to be seen, touched, and celebrated.

We shipped around 20 boxes of 100% Vegtan leather, packed with love (and a bit of tape), and introduced our collection to a crowd that truly gets it. The passion and craftsmanship at Sheridan were nothing short of inspiring.

And we're not stopping there.

This October, we’re taking part in the European Leather Workers & Artists Trade Show in Arnhem, Netherlands, hosted by the Leather Crafters & Saddlers Journal. It’s going to be another fantastic opportunity to meet talented artists, share ideas, and keep building the global leatherworking community we love so much.

Thanks for being part of this journey with us. More leather, more adventures to come!
