Waxed horsehide cordovan. This leather is firm and has a subtle sheen. It's a classic black color that's easy to match with any design. Cordovan is known as the "jewel of leather" due to its manufacturing process, and is an ultra-premium leather with a unit price of over 1000 yen per ds. This is Shin-ki Leather, which has been waxed like bridle leather, so the luster increases the more you use it(^^♪ *The scuffing is from the wax; polishing it with a soft cloth will remove the wax, increase the shine, and make it beautiful. Color: Black Thickness: Approximately 1.7mm Type: Horse Cordovan Feel: Firm Condition: Some wax scuffing. Thank you for viewing.
