About Us

OLD LEATHER. NEW STORIES.

The Leather Project was founded in Berlin in 2024 with a simple idea: to give exceptional leather pieces a new life.

What started as an idea on a sofa turned into a physical store in Berlin and a growing community built around our shared love for vintage, individuality and timeless design.

We have always had a special connection to leather. The way it ages, the character it develops and the fact that a well-made piece can be worn for decades is what makes it different to us. Instead of constantly producing something new, we believe that some of the best pieces already exist, they just need to be found.

That's why we travel, search and handpick vintage pieces that we genuinely love. Our focus is on vintage leather jackets, alongside carefully selected bags, shoes, boots, belts and other leather goods. Every piece is chosen individually, with attention to quality, character and the details that make it unique.

For us, vintage is more than an aesthetic. It's a way of making fashion more circular. By bringing existing pieces back into rotation, we want to show that sustainability and personal style don't have to be opposites.

Our goal is simple: to find great leather, preserve its story and pass it on to the next person.

From an idea on a sofa to our store in Berlin. The Leather Project continues to grow, but the idea behind it remains the same:
