SHELL CORDOVAN HORWEEN
Horween Shell Cordovan is one of the most famous and premium leathers in the world. It is made from a special layer beneath the horsehide, giving it a smooth feel, outstanding durability, and rich, deep colors.
Our Shell Cordovan is sourced from Horween Leather Company, one of the most respected tanneries in the United States. Founded in Chicago in 1905, Horween is best known for making some of the finest Shell Cordovan in the world. Their traditional tanning process takes around six months, resulting in leather with exceptional quality and character.
What makes Shell Cordovan special is the way it ages. Instead of developing deep creases like most leathers, it forms smooth rolling lines and gradually develops a beautiful natural shine. With regular use, the leather becomes even richer in color, making each piece look more unique over time.
Loved by leather enthusiasts, collectors, and luxury brands around the world, Horween Shell Cordovan is a timeless leather that is built to last and only gets better with age.
