Disclaimer: No two products are alike! Please note: it is normal for all of my products, including premium items, to have unique variations and character markings that are inherent to natural full-grain leather. Due to leather thickness, measurements may vary slightly. Color may also have subtle variations from hide-to-hide.
About the Leather
Essex – Dark Brown Football Leather: Essex Dark Brown Football is a full-grain leather embossed with Horween’s iconic football pebble pattern. It has a soft, broken-in feel thanks to Horween’s traditional tanning and conditioning process, which uses oils and waxes to give the leather durability without sacrificing flexibility. This hide offers the recognizable football texture in a deeper, earth-tone brown, giving your piece a rugged, sport-inspired look without the sticky surface found on actual game balls. Over time, it softens and develops more character, making it a great option for wallets, small goods, and everyday carry items that need both style and strength.
Badalassi Carlo Pueblo (Veg Tan): A renowned Italian vegetable-tanned leather from the Badalassi Carlo tannery in Tuscany, known for its matte, rustic finish. Pueblo leather has a lightly buffed, hand-rubbed surface that feels slightly textured or suede-like, giving products an artisanal, vintage charm. Despite the rugged look, it’s full-grain leather of excellent quality – supple with a balanced temper, making it easy to work with and comfortable to use. Over time, Pueblo develops a soft sheen and a rich patina, so your item will actually look better and more lustrous the longer you carry it. This leather comes in many vibrant colors, and its ability to age gracefully has made it a favorite for timeless accessories and small goods.
