Introducing the Newham Inverted Horween Shell Genuine Leather Watch Strap, showcasing the the artistry of Horween’s legendary Shell Cordovan leather like never before. Crafted from the reverse—or "inverted"—side of Shell Cordovan, this strap offers a ruggedly unique aesthetic that showcases the raw beauty of this premium leather.
Each Newham strap is truly one of a kind, boasting distinctive Horween markings that highlight the heritage and craftsmanship behind the material. These markings, varying from strap to strap, create a compelling story on your wrist, combining individuality with timeless appeal. The smooth yet textured finish of the inverted Shell Cordovan exudes character while maintaining the durability and suppleness the leather is renowned for. Over time, the strap will develop a rich patina, deepening its charm and enhancing its bespoke quality.
Perfect for those who value authenticity and uniqueness, the Newham Inverted Horween Shell Strap is a standout choice for pairing with vintage or modern timepieces. Available in a range of sizes to fit your favourite watch. Taking on a genuinely classic v-stitch design at the tip in a contrasting beige thread and double-stitching at the lug ends this strap is meticulously finished with colour-matched edges that contribute to its high-end appearance.
Equipped with quick release spring bars, this strap makes it effortless to customise your watch for any occasion. If you need to remove the quick-release spring bars then you can learn how to easily remove quick-release spring bars in our video.

About The Leather
Inverted Horween Shell Cordovan Leather is a unique and unconventional take on one of the world’s most revered leathers. To understand its appeal, let’s first look at traditional Shell Cordovan: a premium leather sourced from the hindquarters of horsehide. It’s celebrated for its dense fibres, smooth surface, and unparalleled durability. In the case of Inverted (or Reverse) Shell Cordovan, instead of using the glossy, polished outer shell, the leather is flipped, showcasing its raw, unfinished underside. This “inverted” side offers a rugged and natural look, with visible grain and markings that reveal the authentic characteristics of the leather.
