Our Horween Shell Cordovan is a vegetable-tanned leather from Horween in Chicago, USA. Colour 4 refers to Horween's name for medium reddish brown and is one of the rarer colours from Horween as it is more difficult to produce.
Shell Cordovan is famous for its gorgeous shine and unique crease-resisting property due to the density of the leather. It requires very little maintenance and overtime, develops a beautiful patina. Shell Cordovan begins as a high-shine leather and overtime becomes more dull with wear. This shine can be replenished through the application of leather conditioner and brushing vigorously.
