Our Shrunken Calf is a chrome-tanned leather from Remy Carriat in France. Shrunken Calf is an extremely soft and comfortable leather that makes for a perfect watch strap. This leather has excellent water resistance, is resilient, and is easy to maintain. The textured grain gives it a timeless look and will show minimal wear over time. It is for this reason that this leather is used by many luxury brands for their handbags.

The Gold Standard for Leather Watch Straps

All of our watch straps are entirely handmade, utilising traditional leather crafting techniques. They are cut, saddle stitched and edge painted by hand to ensure your straps are durable and refined. All of our straps are lined with Zermatt leather, a hypoallergenic and water-resistant french calf leather. As all our leathers are full-grain leathers, the natural characteristics of the leather will show and may vary across straps.

Attractive utilitarian choice

Wanted an attractive but utilitarian band choice, and this certainly fits the bill. Leather is wonderfully soft and pliable - very comfortable, and a good match for my vintage Seiko Lord Matic 5206-6110. Another quality item from Jayson at Artisan Straps.

Looks like real leather, feels like real leather, I like it!

After an un-happy experience with a major Swiss brand strap that was advertised as leather but wasn’t, I’m happy with my soft, elegant and good looking strap. The people behind it are good to deal with too.
