Thank you for a great chat Alyssa. It was a pleasure being on your channel. I love the "perspective" you are providing with your content! Looking to watch your great videos every week 🙏

This is a GREAT interview. Thank you both for doing it!

Been a fan of Tanner Leatherstein for years. There was a great article in the New York Times a few years ago, and he was mentioned (with his real name) -- he's such a voice of common sense.

As a side note, Turkey indeed has a great tradition of making leather goods. I bought a wallet by an unknown Turkish brand 15 years ago and am still using it today, it holds amazingly.

Thank you for this very informative interview!

His products are the best! Love my wallet and my dopp kit🤩💯✅

Hello ❣️ Such a great Interview, thx for it! I'm German and bc I'm grown up in Northrhine-Westfalia and I'm 69 years old I live House to House with a lot of Turkish People and bc Turkey is a beautiful, an amazing Country I have made a lot of short (and some longer) Vacations to Turkey, too ❣️🤗🥰 I love Turkey - and I love Leather, and I had found over there some great Shops and Facilities which are Leather Crafting. I have very well made Leather Clothes and Bags, some are made of Silk-Sheep/-Lamb Leather, some of Goat and they are worn by me since 30 years and looking like new and bc I wear them carefully I could sell them just now - If I would want to! Thx always to Tanner L., I'm on his Channel for to learn since long time and I'm just searching for PEGAI Products, now I know I can have a Look to ETSY! 😂 THANK YOU 🥰🤗❣️

Thank you for doing this video. I wish you both the best.

Thanks so much for this interview. Been a fan of Tanner for a while. He turned me away from overprocessed leathers. Epi and Caviar treatments might as well be PU leather. Side note: hearing your own voice dismisses my concern about AI. Too many new channels are using AI which I find lazy and inauthentic. Yes, some use it because of language barriers but I still don't care for it. Mispronounced words trigger me. And your voice is lovely.

I love watching him interview, it was was fun to see him introviewed

Great interview. Confirmed all my known facts and opinions.

Very informative..great video

Great interview

I am a huge fan! though I do have to say, classics are what I love to carry, I tend to not buy into "hype bags" or trendy bags sorry Versache 😢 um i wouldnt mind the La Medusa bag BUT only in the black leather and gold hardware, thats classy. this interview was amazing! good job! ❤

Yay so happy u guys did a collab!

This is great

Excellent

Best video guest EVER❤

ah.. this guy helped me so much on leather choices

By the way, has he done a deconstruction video for Atelier Auguste to see about their quality? I absolutely love the brand and I'm seeing it more and more now along with another Parisian brand that I don't want to mention because they're going to get too popular and I am enjoying the uniqueness of my items❤ ;)

❤ the intervju 👍 Is there a leather artisan you can intervju? Some one big on youtube or a theater worker who do the leathergods to the film/theater? Or is there some one who do famous fabricbags? A video on ”al year rond chiq fabricbags”, with embroderi or batik, remake vintage etc. A intervju with some one who deals with vintage or historian bags. A makter of historian bags. A typical bag for a country like komebukuro for Japan etc. Or special craftmanship bags crochet in silvertread or makramé woodbag/coconutbag, knitted bag etc. I hope you got some ideas from my nonsenstalk 😂

No it’s no true no ethics in exotic animals my friend in Australia literally said he got paid just to catch as many different “exotic” animals and deliver himself! Paid cash 💰 in dark places! It doesn’t matter because people still buy like the Kardishian who care about nothing except getting fat and getting more money! Ethics morals not apart of exotic bags. At Hermes tries to limit sales. But shouldn’t be allowed

This was an excellent interview with Tanner. Glad you asked all the right questions we wanted to know about leathers. Question: I have a coach glove tanned leather bag. It’s real. I bought it directly from Coach. It’s scratched up badly over time. How do you explain that? I also do the finger nail test especially on glove tanned leather. It always leaves a mark. There is no bounce back. According to Tanner that means it’s not real which is not true. Who should you interview next? Well between KZfaqrs DeeDee bean, Winnie b LV, super Dacob, etc they pretty much covered every one. That is a good question'. I have to think about it. Pharell Williams, current Louis Vuttion creative director would be pushing it. 😂 In the end, I’m still confused as to how to pick a good leather bag without promoting Tanners company. I will definitely watch this video a few times. Thank you!

You can see how Michael Kors bags age, garbage. They don't feel good new and they look like garbage after few years. I love Coach❤🎉It feels, looks and ages great. Even LV doesn't age as well as coach, ripped corners and handles, and rigid looking zippers in the vintage bags.

What's his website?

What is vegan leather?

what about safiano leather? and why is pu "leather" bad? and what about coated canvas which is known for its durability?

If I'm not sure about a bag being real leather or not, I smell it. Leather smells like leather. "Vegan leather" (elegant way to call plastic) does not smell.

Given recent news the most important question facing all of us is whether it is made by forced or enslaved labor. I do not expect you to address this. G

Doesnt it make more sense to eat the meat of animals and use their skins to make beautiful items than to create bags about food hungry people could be eating?

Thank you so much for this interesting and insightful interview. I recently bought a bag from Pegai in togo leather and I was blown away with the leather quality and the craftmanship. I would recommend this brand to anyone 🫶
