About the Nature of Leather

  • Leather is a natural material, so scars, wrinkles, and differences in color and texture from piece to piece are to be expected. Color may also vary between purchase lots.
  • Enjoy the natural aging of leather: its color and luster deepen and its character changes with use.
  • Dark colors such as Black are rich in oils, so color may transfer to clothing through friction.
