Local tips
- Plan time to handle different leathers and try bags on your shoulder; subtle differences in weight and strap design are easier to judge in person than online.
- Ask about recommended leather care products and routines so your new bag or wallet develops a rich patina rather than drying out or staining.
- If you are choosing a gift, bring or note approximate laptop or document sizes; staff can guide you to designs that fit common devices comfortably.

Discover more about Leather by Corium
Nordic Leather Craft in a Former Paper Mill
Leather by Corium sits within Silkeborg’s Papirfabrikken complex, a former industrial paper mill now transformed into a contemporary riverside quarter of shops, cafés and creative businesses. The store leans into this setting, pairing the area’s brick-and-steel legacy with a softer world of leather, stitching and subtle Nordic design touches. It feels both urban and intimate: a small, carefully curated space rather than a sprawling department store. Inside, the focus is squarely on bags, wallets and leather accessories created in the Danish design tradition. Forms are clean and functional, colours tend towards earthy cognacs, classic black and deep browns, and hardware is understated rather than flashy. The result is an atmosphere where the material itself – the grain of the leather, the weight of a handle, the smooth glide of a zipper – takes centre stage.Thoughtful Designs for Everyday Use
Much of Leather by Corium’s appeal lies in how practical its products are for everyday life. You find structured briefcases sized for laptops, streamlined backpacks that work from office to weekend, and compact crossbody styles that keep travel documents and phones close at hand. Wallets and cardholders are arranged by size and function, from slim front-pocket designs to more substantial pieces with space for coins and receipts. Attention to detail appears in small but telling choices: adjustable straps that sit comfortably on the shoulder, pockets precisely placed for quick access, and linings chosen to be both durable and easy to keep clean. It is a shop that invites you to think about how you move through your day and to pick a piece that quietly supports that rhythm for years rather than seasons.Materials, Craft and Sustainability Awareness
The ethos behind the brand is rooted in using genuine leather sourced from reliable tanneries and working with experienced leather craftsmen. Corium emphasises long-lasting construction, solid stitching and classic silhouettes that age gracefully rather than date quickly. Over time, bags and wallets develop a patina, turning each piece into something more personal. There is also an awareness of responsible production, with a focus on good working conditions at partner workshops and leather sourced with environmental considerations in mind. While this is not a nature reserve or eco-attraction, the philosophy echoes broader Scandinavian values of buying fewer, better things and keeping them in use for as long as possible.Browsing Experience in the Papirfabrikken Quarter
Visiting Leather by Corium often becomes part of a wider stroll through Papirfabrikken. The area’s mix of cultural venues, eateries and riverside walks means you can combine a shopping stop with coffee by the water or a visit to nearby attractions. Large windows bring natural light into the shop, and the displays are arranged to be explored slowly rather than rushed. The ambience is relaxed and low-key, making it comfortable to browse even if you are not sure what you are looking for. Staff are typically happy to talk through differences in leather types, explain how to care for a new bag, or suggest a suitable gift without pressure. For travellers, it can be an appealing place to pick up a functional souvenir that will see daily use back home.Gifts, Souvenirs and Everyday Upgrades
Leather by Corium works as much for locals refreshing a work bag as it does for visitors hunting for something distinctly Danish. Smaller accessories – cardholders, key cases, compact pouches – provide gift-friendly options that slip easily into luggage. Larger pieces, from shoppers to weekend bags, suit those looking to replace an old favourite with something sturdier and more timeless. Because many items share a consistent design language, it is easy to assemble matching sets: a briefcase with a coordinating wallet, or a handbag paired with a small zip pouch. The overall impression is of a boutique that values quiet quality and everyday usefulness over trend-chasing, making it a worthwhile stop if you appreciate well-made leather and Scandinavian design.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
