Fabric: " JAPANESE FULL GRAIN LEATHER "
This leather is made in Tatsuno City, Hyogo Prefecture, by a tannery with a long history, using the Japanese-unique "water dyeing" method for clothing. From raw material to finish, the entire process is done in-house. By minimizing finishing ( spraying ) , we emphasize preserving the leather's original fine grain and texture. It's lightweight with a moderate firmness, yet supple and flexible with a high oil content. With each wear, it develops a deeper color and softer feel. It also conforms to the wearer's body over time, developing a beautiful patina. Furthermore, it has water-repellent properties, resisting water, dirt, and rain, ensuring long-lasting wear.
Handling Precautions for Leather Products
* Because natural leather is used, color transfer may occur due to friction, sweat, or water. Also, even with the same product number, each item will have a different appearance due to differences in the parts used.
* We make the most of the natural character of genuine leather, including stains, scratches, wrinkles, and traces of blood vessels and pores. Please note that we do not accept returns or exchanges due to the unique characteristics of the leather, such as "there are wrinkles," "I'm not satisfied with the location of the scratches," or "there are stains." Please acknowledge this before placing your order.
* For products made with natural leather, we generally do not accept any complaints.
