About fourth + pierce

Their Leather
Tanned in the famous leather stocking region of Central NY, this season's collection of North American Whitetail Deerskin is the most environmentally friendly leather on earth. All leather found in fourth+pierce's shop has been made with only "reach" certified chemicals from the top brands in the industry and they stand by their promise to always source the most environmentally friendly type tannages, as well as continuing to look for ways to use less water and chemicals in their creation process. Their passion for sustainable product runs deep. Collected and gathered from a cottage type industry, fourth+pierce hides are from animals that are harvested for conservation purposes to protect the health of the species. This practice supports and aids the small communities around the United States by paying the small butchers and meat processors throughout the countryside. They firmly believe in not letting any part of an animal go to waste.
