• Essex: Using the same tanning extracts as the Genuine Shell Cordovan, the Essex full grain leathers are a vegetable tanned side leather with tanning methods that are over 100 years old. Essex is distinguished by its oil blend that ages beautifully over time that are used on a large variety of products. There are also 2 waxed versions of Essex: Dublin and Derby, which are considered more 'rustic' versions of Essex.
• Essex is well known for being supple and soft with saturated colors, and a refined look.
• Horween leathers have been hand made since 1905 and still use many of its original tannages and techniques, while innovating with modern applications.
• Used for watch straps, wallets, small leather goods, shoes, clothing, bag straps, bags, and infinite other leather products.
