Tanneries and leather quality

A significant portion of LillSport's products are made from leather, from thick and warm moose hide to thin and delicate Ethiopian hair sheep leather, known as Cabretta. Working with leather is a craft and we believe that long-term and lasting relationships with our tanneries are crucial to achieving and maintaining the highest quality products.

We mainly use two types of leather in the production for LillSport. One type is Ethiopian hair sheep from the region around Amhara and Bahir Dar, located near the Blue Nile. The hair sheep are kept there for food and the skins are collected and tanned by BAHIRDAR Tannery PLC, with whom we have collaborated for about 15 years. The other type of leather comes from game such as deer and roe deer. These skins originate in Poland and are provided by local operators near our factory.

Our suppliers comply with REACH, the regulations for chemical substances, chemical products and goods according to the EU regulations REACH (EC No. 1907/2006) and CLP (EC No. 1272/2008).

Mulesing-free wool

Wool is a fantastic natural material with unbeatable properties when it comes to keeping your hands comfortably warm. The wool used in LillSport comes from suppliers with elaborate systems to ensure that only mulesing-free wool is used. The systems are tested quarterly by Deloitte & Touche GmbH Economy Auditing Society in Munich, Germany.

Our factory is certified to both ISO 9001:2008 and 14001:200
