HORWEEN Shell Cordovan Regular Dark Cognac
HORWEEN Shell Cordovan Regular Dark Cognac
Made using shell cordovan from Horween, an American tanner.
Currently available in 6 colors at our store, this one is made from a rare dark cognac.
This cordovan product is manufactured by Horween, a tannery company in Chicago, USA, and has been trademarked under the name Shell Cordovan to differentiate it from other companies. Shell cordovan is impregnated with more oil than regular cordovan, giving it a lustrous appearance that looks like it has been used and cared for from the beginning.
Shell cordovan is manufactured with great care and time, from tanning to oil processing, making it highly durable and said to be of the highest quality among cordovan.
The leather is soaked with plenty of oil, so it has a moist feel from the beginning and is very comfortable to wear. As you use it, the luster will increase and the shine will change over time.
This belt is both sturdy and supple, has a different feel from cowhide or crocodile leather, and looks great when worn on a watch, so we recommend you try it out.
*The color and texture of the leather may differ slightly depending on the lot.
*This leather is not completely color-fastened in order to retain its good texture. Please note that the color may fade due to sweat or rain. Be especially careful when wearing white clothing.

I purchased this to attach to my Old Inter hand-wound watch. I have been using wallets made by this horse leather manufacturer for some time, and I knew the quality of the leather, but when I tried it on my watch, it felt very comfortable to wear and looked great. However, I think I'll take a break from wearing watches and leather straps during the summer.
Thank you for your review. Cordovan straps are made of solid leather and have a unique luster. We hope you enjoy using it.
