Tannin, a
“super-natural” substance
Tannin is not uncommon: it is contained in many types of food you eat and in various items that you use daily. Yet it is the most precious substance nature has ever offered us.
In fact, it has unique qualities, which have led some scholars to define it as “super-natural”: a natural “super-hero” substance, usable in different production processes and able to bring many benefits to human and animal health.
It also means promoting the economy and employment of mountain and rural areas, especially in Europe and in the Americas, preventing the abandonment of villages and preserving local traditions.
Tannin is three times good: for our organism, for the environment and for the development of a sustainable economy.

Thanks to their hygroscopic properties, tannins are able to absorb the sweat and prevent the unpleasant odors formation. The causes of this small but annoying “taboo” are related to the shoe, which, by increasing the temperature and decreasing the perspiration, acts as a bacteria “incubator”. Unperspiring synthetic materials can lead to an exponential increase in the bacterial population, exacerbating the problem. On the contrary, shoes with vegetable tanned leather interiors are perfect for the wellbeing of the foot.
