Innovation sits at the heart of everything we do at écotorie. With India producing nearly 13% of the world’s leather, we see an incredible opportunity—and responsibility—to rethink the way things are done. Our team is constantly at work behind the scenes, finding better ways to reduce waste, improve processes, and build a more thoughtful leather industry from the ground up. It’s not about moving fast. It’s about moving forward, with purpose.

A visit to any leather production cluster in India reveals more than just factories and workshops. It reveals the lives built around them. Often, these areas are home to families and communities directly impacted by the industry’s environmental practices. We hold ourselves accountable not only to our workers but also to the neighborhoods that surround our supply chain. We’ve made a conscious pledge to adopt cleaner methods that protect both the people we work with and the communities we work within.

At écotorie, we believe in making just enough, and never too much. Wastefulness has no place in our process. Every piece is crafted in small, considered batches, guided by intention, not impulse. Our designs are timeless, built to stay with you and age beautifully, so there’s never a need to replace what’s already loved. In a world that moves fast, we choose to slow down.
