A process for coating vegetable-tanned leathers is provided. The process includes depositing a coating layer composed of an aqueous dispersion of polyurethane resin on a support having anti-adhesion properties, curing the coating layer on the support, depositing an adhesive layer composed of an aqueous dispersion of polyurethane resin onto the cured coating layer, applying a leather piece onto the adhesive layer, the leather piece being a vegetable-tanned leather piece, in a continuous oven curing the adhesive layer to attach the leather piece to the coating layer, and removing the coated leather piece from the support. Within the continuous oven the leather piece reaches a maximum temperature comprised between 65° C. and 75° C., with a dwell time in the oven comprised between 180 and 210 seconds.
