Is it okay to take a leather backpack to India??

Question

I am worried that Hindi might be offended.

Answer 1

yeah

Answer 2

absolutely not, cows are sacred animals in india. You wouldn't like it if they were wearing a hat made from your old dog. I hope this clears it up for you

Answer 3

Yes. Its absolutely safe and no Indian should get offended because of it (I am an Indian!!!). After all, most of the shoes (and waist belts, wallets etc.)  in India are made from cow hide,

Answer 4

Yes it is. Just dont brag about it to the local population. But what the weather and airports will do to your leather backpack is quite another thing altogether.
