Difference

Semi-vegetable tanned leather hides go through the vegetable tanning as well as chrome tanning. The benefit of incorporating both of these processes is that chrome tanning softens the hide and diminishes imperfections, while vegetable tanning strengthens the leather and gives it a rich, earthy tone. Semi-vegetable tanned hides are known for their long lifespans that make them an ideal choice for garments and accessories.
