Full-Grain Leather | Honest Hides
Our Honest Hides include our nubuck, pull-up and aniline leathers because they the most honest leather in our collection. What we mean by that is they are simply the softest, most natural feeling leathers we work with.
How They Feel
Nubuck hides: are hand sanded so every hide will have a personality of its own. A final touch of silicon is applied creating an irresistibly soft touch and uniquely rustic look.
Pull-up leather: is finished with a combination of transparent waxes and oils, which gives the leather a very soft hand, or feel.
True aniline hides: achieve their beautiful feel by remaining exposed with a slight finish, but nothing to deter the natural quality, creating a subtle distressed charm found in your most loved items. Aniline is the highest quality leather, the most natural, soft and gracefully supple of all leather types. But as a pure aniline leathers, marks, scratches, and signs of wear will show and a rich patina, or shine, will increase over time on all these leathers.
How They Wear
Because this leather is "exposed," it will develop a beautiful patina with wear over time. A patina is essentially the weathered look a piece of leather will take on as it ages. A good patina is a sight to behold. It's a richness and beauty that only comes with time and experience.
Leather Care Tips
This leather can require a bit more care, because it could fade in direct sunlight or be more susceptible to soiling. Because of this, we recommend waterproofing these leather goods from day one, mainly if you want to slow down the patina process. Overall, the best way to care for any leather is to pay attention to the dirt and oils from your touch and take care of any soiling immediately. However, we believe the daily wear of this leather is part of its story. Over time, they will develop a rich shine, but with a little extra care, you can extend the life and beauty of these treasures.
