The lifespan of a leather strap depends primarily on the material, the quality of the tanning process and daily use. A high-quality vegetable-tanned calf leather strap, worn with care and kept away from excessive moisture, typically lasts between 2 and 4 years. Cordovan and alligator leathers tend to last longer due to the higher density of their fibres. Casati Milano provides an 18-month guarantee against manufacturing defects.
