Product description
This classic pull‐up leather from Horween® uses the same hot‐stuffing formula for nearly 100 years. This process infuses the leathers with an oil and wax blend to create a distinctive and durable leather. They are then hand‐stained to create a richly colored leather with a beautiful pull‐up effect that showcases the natural leather grain.

When dealing with leather, it is standard to measure the thickness in ounces, with each ounce being roughly equal to 0.4mm (1/64"). It is important to keep in mind that hides can have natural variations in thickness, even after undergoing splitting processes. Therefore, it is crucial to take into account the weight and durability when choosing the appropriate thickness for your leather projects.
