oyej started off making products from ‘dry<br />

denim’ which is denim that does not go through<br />

a final washing process aer dyeing. Their use<br />

of vegetable tanned leather goods started off as<br />

complimentary items for the jeans but now has<br />

become a prominent part of their product line-up.<br />

Vegetable tanned leather is a special type of<br />

leather with an artisanal method of processing<br />

using natural tanners from plants. The result is<br />

leather that is highly durable and has remarkable<br />

aging qualities where they go through a sort of<br />

‘caramelisation’ to form a so sheen over time<br />

called patina.<br />

The essel is their first and best selling product,<br />

an iconic short wallet where the USA imported<br />

leather is hand-stitched for optimum quality. It’s a<br />

compact yet sturdy accessory with a good amount<br />

of card slots and a coin pouch. Other accessories<br />

include card cases, belts and even a rustic looking<br />

camera strap to spice up your camera.<br />
