About leather materials

affordance usesoriginal madeinJapan cowhide leather made in collaboration with tanners (craftsmen who turn hides into leather) in Tatsuno City, Hyogo Prefecture.
Since the finish takes advantage of the quality of the material itself, there may be scratches left over from when the cow was alive.
It is also characterized by aging, which is a sign of tanned cowhide leather. Color may fade due to friction or water exposure.

In winter, protect your toes from the cold and keep them warm.

A good companion for room time

Another good thing about leather material is that it adapts to the shape of your feet as you use it every day.
affordance's leather slipper production began with a request from a friend. I've been making it for about 13 years since I first started, but it has changed quite a bit from its initial form.
The shape and material were reviewed many times, resulting in the current slipper shape.
As a creator, I recommend wearing them barefoot in the summer. It's a little cool and feels good.

I like leather tanned in Japan.

A scene of leather being tanned by Japanese tanners
The production process begins with carefully selected leather materials .
The production of leather materials is outsourced directly to tanners in Hyogo Prefecture.
Domestic genuine tanned cowhide leather tanned with natural vegetable tannins made by tanners who take environmental issues seriously. It is a leather that allows you to fully enjoy the aging effect that is the best part of leather materials.
Affordance's ideal leather material has no unnecessary processing and retains the naturalness of the leather. The ideal is a leather that has a firm texture but is soft and supple.
Since the leather is a delicate material whose color and texture change depending on the condition of the hide and the season, we consult with the tanner each time to adjust the finish. We believe that working together between craftsmen who turn leather into leather and craftsmen who turn leather into products will lead to better manufacturing.

Tips for growing leather products

  • I often use

    As you continue to use leather products every day, the surface of the leather will become glossy, the color will deepen, and it will become familiar to the person.
    Please grow your leather products as your "partner" while enjoying the changes over time.

  • take care of

    If you have skin care products, please apply one coat at the beginning of use, and then use it during times when moisturizing is required, such as during dry periods. Using leather wax prevents stains and fading, and also provides antiseptic and insect repellent effects.

  • make repairs

    Products manufactured at affordance can be repaired at our workshop.
