This background music sounds like I'm about to pick my character on Street Fighter

Corona quarantine made me watch this video in its entirety.

I used to work in both a finishing and a wet end tannery, i was working on the maintenance, not direcctly on production.this video brings back some memories, but you missed out the most notable thing in any tannery, especially for a first time visitor, the smell.

Much respect to the operators and to the engineers who designed those machines! Very cool!

I am always amazed by the people who design the huge machines used in the processing of leather.

How we can all learn something new every day. I'm 70yr and this is a first for me. Many thanks

Who would have thought this entire process from receiving the original skins to the finished product was this complex? I have always loved leather and now clearly see why it is priced accordingly. It gives one a whole new perspective and appreciation when putting on your favorite leather jacket.

Probably the best video about this content on KZfaq. Thanks for sharing 👍

Im surprised that the skill and hard work of the slaughtermen involved in this process wasn't mentioned..The amount of skill it takes to do this is really under apreciated . For example if a slaughterman angles his knife a few degrees the wrong way can easily damage this , at this stage very fragile hide. Then the hides classification is reduced as is the price. One knifemark in the wrong place can half the price of a hide. So thumbs up to the under apreciated men on the front line.

After watching this video... I went and kissed my leather shoes and said "baby you've been through a lot"...

So amazing, have just completed my leather technology course unit at college and I find this video so interesting...thanks so much

The accompanying music to this video reminds me of Sultans Of Swing by Dire Strait

I learn something new every day!! Thanks for the lesson. 💋💋💋

Don't mind me I'm just studying so I can survive when I finally get isekai'd.

Brilliant video, thank you for posting - learnt a lot!

This video need to be reshoot with hd cameras. I find it interesting even after 11 years of its air.

leather are classic thing, combine with classic backsound music with classic narator voice. Perfect!

Came for the video, stayed for the epic soundtrack.

Thank you showing this to us.

Yeh, the workers were showing a lot of passion, working for their leather masters.

this is the best background music possible for a video about leather production

Retro style documentary with sultan of swings music style. Oki, you get my thumbs up.

Really Beautiful leather and explanation of the process on tanning and finishing leather. Thanks for the video! Bruce leather crafter from Gainesville Texas.

Dam that was great for a novice leather smith, now I'll realize what makes leather so hard to afford. It reminds Me of the saying "It takes a hell of a lot of work to put wrinkles from a Plum into a Prune". Thank You's. ~(;-})={>---]

This is a very condensed and simplified view of the tanning process,chrome leather takes up to 18 days from desalting to finishing, since we work with a natural product the process and formulation of chemicals has to be adjusted on a regular basis to obtain a uniform product in texture,color, physical properties,not an easy task.I 'm glad I'm retired, I worked as a technician for over 40 years.

thank you for all the details. am already in love with leather

Cool nice to see what it takes to get such nice leather never knew.

8:10 legit the shape of the animal 🥲

Lovely video very informative . thank you

I enjoyed watching your video... It was quite amazing watching the process of the leather being brought to life and ready to be used... Thank you!!!

I appreciate your work.

i just enjoying the music.....the music rocks!

The same process we are doing in goat skins(raw to finishing) for shoes and garments.😊

Being a musician myself and a good one, I am very impressed by the Background Music. Well done! 🐴🍺🎸

Great insight - I import leather sofas for my job so this was very informative for my training and I will be sharing with others.....

thanks for the effort.

and THAT is why this video is about MODERN leather making in the "past" the leather was used at the thickness it came off at

Well, I hate to burst(bust) everyone’s balloons, but, this isn’t the true way. And I got pictures of bulls and cows gettin it on, MAKING LEATHER, one lover at a time. But, this is a great vlog and thanks for sharing it with us.

Beautiful work

I’m an upholsterer and I been working leather for years.

Wow, great film!

Wow amazing skills these people have

This is why I don't tan my own leather

wow... interesting... I make a lot of items from leather now I know how it's done!

Thanks for sharing. Very good details and pictures.

This is beautiful, thanks.

Woa! I love the video, very resourceful. how can i remove the strong smell of leather or deduce the odour significantly???i will greatly appreciate a reply ...thanks!!

Very good music. My compliments to the music dept. When did Mark Knopfler get on board?

very nice video.kindly add the soaking & liming process

I have a new respect for my leather bondage gear. :P

Excellent video...

great video! thank you

Wonderfully insightful

I worked in a Tannery in finishing dept. ran Staking machine, each hide at a time done by one individual and the staking machine was scary with big arms coming down on the hide. you did not get your hands in there or they were gone. and the buffing machines where two rollers traveling oppocite each other one hide at a time. the dyeig was done by hand "Swabbing" it was called. long swabs. made of wood and wool kind of banna shaped. were dipped in to big pan/basins of dye, and then swabbed onto the leather, then ran thru a dryer. Did lots of other jobs there too!. not a fun time in my life. But we all had to make a living didn't we.

Wow i had no idea all the steps it took to make leather as I know it.

Italian leather is some of the best in the world

Last Background music sound like "Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing"

Good for those having insomnia. I got sleepy watching it. But it was fun

Sounds like maybe Mark Knopfler was the studio musician playing guitar in the background music for this film!

looking at the workers depresses me...imagine doing that every day of your life? the struggle

No chickens are harmed in making of this video

When my horse died, I asked the vet who would I call to take it away. 1-800-DEAD-COW I said this is not the time to joke around. He wasn't smiling and I called and they came same day. I asked what they did with all the animals and they said the hooves and ligaments sold to jello producers, hides for leather makers, and the meat and guts to McDonalds.

Pretty impressive operation.

What a great and informative video, the only downside is that when the narrator pays appreciation to the processes he leaves out the appreciation for the product, leaving out the gratitude for animals. I think they deserve at least an ounce of acknowledgement for their sacrifice. That’s all.

Very educational thank you

Anybody know the name of this music, it's epic!

I’ve never worked in the “wet” process but worked on a spray line, presses, drums and measuring in the “Central Leatherstocking region” in upstate NY! At one point probably about 100 years ago or more there were more than 400 leather shops here!

Interesting program. Thanks for sharing!

Great job

Leather is so great

I like the background music 😍 can I get a title please 😢🙏🏻

the music is beautiful

IS THIS WHAT JONY IVE USED TO DO BEFORE GOING TO APPLE. The announcer in the video literally sounds exactly like him.

Definitely understand the price of it that’s alot of work

Excellent.

The first process isnt shaking the salt off...the first process is skinning an animal lol

a wonderful material

I now have a greater appreciation for my leather jackets, it takes a lot of work to get them right. There is nothing more metal in clothing than wearing skin from something dead! Now, if you're a person who doesn't listen to heavy music then I can understand how bad that last bit may sound. I promise I'm not a horrible human being in real life lol Most of us aren't. We are already killing the animal for meat, might as well salvage the rest of the animal for other uses than just throwing it to waste.

Sounds like Mark Knopfler playing guitar in the background music.

Nice presentation 👍

very nice system

Hii Sir Hru..I like this process very much..plz share Indian sheep and goat process also...Thanx

great work- like it -

Tanners are wizards. When I put on ma leather, and rock to sum Metallica, Delta Parole, Foo Fighters or the Smashing Pumpkins I feel like I can do anything in the whole wide world.

Nice flash gordon music

I tried to be vegetarian/vegan, I tried but I couldn’t do it and also I tried to wear faux fur. I used to be mad at people who openly picked leather for their cars…I’m sorry I grown to love my designer bags over the years I can’t hate anymore🥲

Also not mentioned that this is is the Chrome tanning process. Veg Tanning is different.

Very very good film

Wow long process, and going thru a lot of machines , just to make it look like clean smooth leather, plus still have a shaping process no wonder why the leathers are so expensive.

Background music is from typical 90s era

Much respect for engineers

Long process .. that's why it very special 👍

Another job I would not want. There is a serious amount of work that goes into this...

Where I can get your leather Hello so beautiful leather
