Sweden had a prominent leather industry during the first half of the 20th century, largely concentrated in Malung in Dalarna. Some of that heritage can be found here with us in the form of leather jackets in various styles, often made from goat leather. The high level of craftsmanship and the quality of the leather are distinctive features of garments from this period.
