UV-printing brings glimmer to regenerated leather trousers

06/05/2020

The latest leather trousers from French designer Marine Serre, called Regenerated Leather Pants, combine sustainability and innovative design.

Designed with a similar fit and pockets to the brand’s signature denim trousers, the ‘regenerated’ trousers use deadstock leather — leather left over from halted productions — which is UV-printed in Italy to “revamp the material”.

The printing technique, according to Marine Serre, is “more like laser-etching on a surface, [assuring] durability of the motifs while impregnating the material with an outstanding, glimmery texture.”
