Is vegetable tanned leathers more likely to stain clothes than chromium leathers?

I'm choosing types of leathers for watch straps. Are vegetable tanned leathers more likely to stain shirt cuffs, for example, compared to chromium tanned leathers? Oh, and the strap will be dyed black.

 

Thanks!

If the dye is properly applied and allowed to set then neither of them will stain clothing.  Vegetable-tanned leather by itself won't cause any ill effects to anything as it is tanned with natural materials.  Poor quality control in craftsmanship and production of items is what causes things like staining, etc., and that is it.
