Whiskey Shell Cordovan (Padded) Leather Strap

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.

Shell Cordovan is famous for its gorgeous shine and unique crease-resisting property due to the density of the leather. It requires very little maintenance and overtime, develops a beautiful patina. Shell Cordovan begins as a high-shine leather and overtime becomes duller with wear. This shine can be replenished through the application of leather conditioner and brushing vigorously.

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.
