Horween Chromexcel Leather Collection

We use Chromexcel leather from the world famous Horween tannery in Chicago USA, for this special collection. The leather is thick in substance, yet it's as supple as they come. As a pull-up leather, areas of tension in the shoemaking process bring out lighter shades of colour, creating beautiful rich transitions of colour shades around the shoe. Scratches can be removed by gently rubbing the leather, and over time a unique patina will develop.

We include a free sample pot of our favourite leather balsam for this leather, letting you restore the lustre of your shoes, or if you prefer the distressed look, simply leave them, occasionally cleaning with a soft cloth and water, using a very light touch (never scrub).

Colours available: 

Horween Burgundy no.8 CMXL 
Horween Natural CMXL 
Horween Brown CMXL 
Horween Black CMXL
