ABOUT THE LEATHER
The Horween Leather Company needs little introduction. Their most famous leathers, Chromexcel and Shell Cordovan, have been produced since 1905 with a secret formula. These leathers are unique to Horween and are celebrated worldwide for their quality and heritage.
The Chromexcel leather is famous for being one of the best “pull-up” leathers. When soft aniline leather creases, bends and stretches, the color migrates to the stimulated “pulled” area and causes the color to become lighter. This change in color gives the “pull-up” leather its name.
Chromexcel is unique in that it is naturally air-dried unlike many other aniline leathers, which results in a tighter break. Thanks to its manufacturing process, it has excellent scratch recovery too. With its special pull-up characteristic, this is a fine leather to age and patinate on your wrist.
