Museum Calf
Musemu Calf is a magical leather. Different from other old-fashioned leather, it is hand-painted and fully pressed. The leather itself presents different shades of color and marble-like textures. Combined with the rich oil content of the leather surface, the leather is very beautiful. This leather has been very popular in recent years and has now become a true classic. Museum calf comes from the Italian tannery Ilcea.
Box Calf
Box calf is the finest leather available for welted footwear. The leather is chrome-tanned with an aniline finish, which gives the leather a beautiful sheen and great depth.
Suede
We use more top-grain fetal cow suede to make high-grade loafers. These suedes are smooth, soft and delicate, and more durable. Without a doubt, this is the highest quality suede on the market.
Unique Leather
Grained leathers and unique leathers are also an important part of our uppers. Grained leathers come in a variety of patterns, with interesting and unique grain variations, making them an essential leather for more casual footwear. We also use crocodile, python, lizard and more to create beautiful shoes.
