《Oil Cordovan + Pueblo》

Luxuriously crafted with Shinki Hikaku's world-renowned oil cordovan.
Its moist, deep luster captivates onlookers, exuding a presence that leather enthusiasts dream of holding.

The interior features Pueblo leather with beautiful coloration.
This material is particularly enjoyable for its aging process, deepening in color and luster with use, developing a unique character. The contrast with the exterior is another unique charm of this series.

To fully appreciate the refined material, the design is deliberately minimalist, with restrained embellishments.
It's a basic design that highlights the beauty of cordovan.

《Shinki Hikaku Cordovan》

Shinki Hikaku Cordovan is made from raw hides shipped from Europe, undergoing a long period of maturation and tanning.

This horse leather is created by shaving the dense fiber layer found only in the hindquarters of horses from the reverse side, followed by further maturation and drying, a process that takes a full 10 months.

Due to its unique luster and profound texture, this high-quality leather is also known as "King of Leather" and "Diamond of Leather."

Oil cordovan undergoes a glazing process after being colored with dyes, which creates its transparent beauty, luster, and deep color.
The surface subtly reveals the raw texture of the leather, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike.

Please enjoy the aging process with continued use.

《Pueblo Leather from Badalassi Carlo》

Pueblo leather, an Italian leather, is produced by "Badalassi Carlo," a world-renowned tannery in Tuscany, Italy, using the shoulder part of raw cowhides from cows over two years old, processed with the Vachetta method.

The traditional Italian Vachetta method, with over 10 centuries of history, involves tanning cowhide with vegetable tannins without using any chemicals, and then slowly adding highly pure "beef tallow" over time.

This high-quality Italian leather, infused with oil, is then brushed with sandpaper and a brass brush.

Initially, it has a smooth, matte texture, but with use, it develops a deep color change and exceptional luster.

Furthermore, due to the oil permeating the entire leather, the surface becomes surprisingly soft and familiar to the touch, and it protects the leather from some water and dryness.
This is due to the effect of "oleic acid," the main component of beef tallow.
Oleic acid is resistant to degradation and drying, maintaining an appropriate moisture content inside the leather and preventing it from becoming too stiff due to excessive moisture loss.
