About The Leather
Horween Shell Cordovan is one of the most sought-after leathers in the world, known for its unmatched durability, smooth texture, and rich, deep lustre. This leather is crafted using a labour-intensive process that spans six months, starting with select horsehide shells sourced from the flat muscle beneath the equine rump. With its resilience, non-creasing qualities, and ability to develop a beautiful patina over time, the overall result is a material that is both luxurious and built to last, making it the perfect choice for a premium watch strap.
