Sylvain Bussiere, CEO Tanneries Roux To me, leather isn’t just a material; it’s a passion that has shaped my life. I am endlessly grateful for everything this journey has brought me and continues to bring. As we approach the end of the year, I want to celebrate leather not merely as a product of the year, but as a timeless treasure. It lives alongside us, collecting our memories in the form of small scratches and small stains—each one a testament to our experiences. Like us, it ages beautifully, telling stories that we can share with our grandchildren.

The craft of leather-making is a unique blend of 10% science and 90% passion. How many products can claim such a absolute perfect imbalance? This allows passionate artisans to create a second skin that instinctively fits our needs. Leather is warm, like a hug from a mother; soft, like the skin of our newborn; tanned, like the skin of a strong father; light, like a gentle kiss; resilient, like armor in winter; and beautiful, like a touch of luxury.

Let’s celebrate leather for all it represents—our memories, our stories, and the artistry that brings it to life!
