Vegetable-tanned leather is tanned with natural vegetable tannins to alter the protein structure of the hide, causing it to become leather. This type of leather typically takes a longer amount of time to create. It is considered higher quality in comparison to chrome-tanned leather. Approximately 10% of all leather is vegetable-tanned.
Chrome-tanned leather uses chemicals to tan and is a faster, less costly process. Approximately 90% of all leather is chrome-tanned.
Veg tan leather is typically thicker and more durable, while chrome tanned leather is thin and less durable.
