Not leather. Not fabric. Fungus.


Amadou is a remarkable material harvested from the "Tinder Hoof" mushroom. Used for millennia by mountain dwellers, it is one of the world's rarest craft materials. At Amadou.shop, we preserve this vanishing tradition, bringing the organic warmth of the forest directly to your wardrobe.

  • The Amadou Hat

    The weightless crown: forget the heavy feel of traditional felt. Wearing an Amadou hat feels like a soft, breathable embrace from the forest itself. It’s naturally moisture-wicking and incredibly light, keeping you cool in the sun and cozy in the breeze. Once you feel that suede-like texture against your skin, you’ll realize why this "vegan leather" has been a hidden artisanal secret for centuries.

  • The Amadou Bracelet

    Earth on your pulse: An Amadou bracelet isn't just an accessory; it’s a tactile grounding tool. Soft to the touch and warm against the skin, it develops a unique character as it ages with you. It’s the perfect conversation starter—a piece of ancient fungal craft wrapped around your wrist that feels as organic and supple as a second skin.

  • The Amadou Wipes

    Magic for your screens: Experience the world with high-definition clarity. Because Amadou is one of nature’s most absorbent fibers, these wipes lift oils and smudges from your eyeglasses or phone screens without a single chemical or scratch. It’s a strangely satisfying ritual—one swipe of this velvet-soft material, and your view is instantly crystal clear.
