Why has the HushTug tote bag become such a popular product among customers in such a short time?
The secret becomes clear when you unravel the question, "Why Mongolia?"
Why Mongolia?
1. An environment where high-quality leather can be obtained
HushTug uses hides sourced from nomadic herders in Mongolia.
Mongolian animals survive in temperatures as low as 30°C in summer and minus 40°C in winter .
Such a harsh environment is rare in the world.
This world-class harsh environment results in an extremely strong and durable hide .
Its quality is recognized around the world, and many are exported to leather-producing countries such as Italy . *2
It is not uncommon to find leather bags labeled "Made in Italy" that contain Mongolian leather.
Why Mongolia?
② Leather is abundant, so it is cheap.
Mongolian leather can be purchased at about 1/10 of the price compared to Japan.
As mentioned above, the quality of Mongolian leather is not inferior to that of Japanese leather and is also highly regarded in leather-producing countries of Europe .
So why is it so cheap?
The reason is simple: Mongolia has an abundance of leather .
[Number of livestock]Japan: 2.55 million heads*3
Mongolia: 70.94 million heads*4
[population]
Japan: 125.57 million people*5
Mongolia: 3.36 million people*6
[Livestock per person]
Japan: 0.02 heads Mongolia: 21 heads
Although Mongolia's population is 1/37th of Japan's , it has 28 times as many livestock animals as Japan .
When it comes to the number of livestock per person, Mongolia has an unimaginable 1,050 times that of Japan.
By the way, in Mongolia, they do not kill animals to get their skins.
The nomads kill only the amount they need to feed themselves, in a way that causes as little suffering as possible.
If left alone, livestock will mate and multiply more than they can eat.
As a result, only one male is left in the herd, and all the other males are castrated to prevent the herd from multiplying any further .
Mongolia has an abundance of skins .
I hope you can imagine what this means a little bit.
For these reasons, leather can be purchased in Mongolia at one-tenth the price than in Japan.
Why do we
Have you never heard of Mongolian leather?
Here a question arises.
High quality and low price.
Why haven't we, who are looking for value for money, heard of Mongolian leather?
The bottom line is that it's not a lack of study.
The system was set up in such a way that it was impossible to learn about Mongolian leather .
Why, when asked "Which country is famous for leather?", do we answer "Italy"?
This is because you often see luxury bags that say "Made In Italy" around town.
However, the "Made in XX" written here does not refer to the country where the leather was harvested, but the country where the leather is made into the bag .
In other words, Italy is famous not just as a country that produces leather, but as a country that turns leather into bags .
If that's the case, why not just make their own bags using leather produced in their own country?
If they make the bags themselves, they can display the "Made In Mongolia" logo.
Because the quality of the leather is good, Mongolian leather is becoming famous.
But Mongolia doesn't do that.
No, I couldn't.
Why Mongolia has not become famous as a leather powerhouse
With so much leather in abundance, why aren't Mongolian leather products better known?
Why hasn't Mongolia sold its leather products to the world?
That's because Mongolia was a socialist country until just 30 years ago .
In a socialist country, your salary is the same whether you work hard or not .
In other words,
No matter how well designed a bag is, no matter how advanced the technology is,
The salary is the same.
This is not how you can hope to create something better.
There is no way that the level of Mongolia's leather industry can improve.
Thirty years after the end of socialism, we still haven't developed the technology to be competitive on a global scale.
