Hey Dude?s recycled leather is comprised of pieces of hide that would otherwise typically be discarded during the leather-making process. How do we make it? We grind up scraps of leather and combine them with fabric before fusing everything into a single material. Finally, the material is placed on a roll for cutting, which improves efficiency (and creates less waste!) This technique uses about 90 percent less water than traditional full-grain leather and has a far less carbon footprint than conventional leather manufacturing!
