Our Shinki Hikaku Shell Cordovan is a mixed tanned leather from Shinki Hikaku in Japan.
Leather: Whiskey Shell Cordovan
Stitching Colour: Camel
Strap Thickness:4.2mm at lugs, tapering to 2.2mm
Temper: Medium
Surface: Smooth. As Japanese Shell Cordovan is not dyed through, bending the strap will reveal a lighter colour underneath and will darken with wear.
Patina: Low
Water Resistance: Moderate. To ensure longevity, avoid moisture or soaking our straps in water.
As our straps are handcrafted with natural leather, each strap will be unique and may have slight variations to the product photo.
All of our watch straps are entirely handmade one by one, utilising traditional leather crafting techniques. They are cut, saddle stitched and edge painted by hand to ensure that your strap lasts you a lifetime. All of our straps are lined with Zermatt leather, a hypoallergenic and water-resistant French calf leather.
Compared to the cognac shell cordovan from Shinki Hikaku, the Whiskey has a more yellow undertone.
