Selected leathers
Cordovan is not leather. It's a fibrous shell taken from the hindquarters of a horse – a compact, almost pore-free layer not found anywhere else on the animal. That's why it's rare. That's why it ages differently from any other leather: it doesn't soften, it smooths. It doesn't wear out, it develops a patina.
This strap is made from selected shell cordovan, crafted in Italy without stitching. A deliberate choice: no seams interrupt the surface. The line is clean, continuous, almost metallic in its formal rigor. On the wrist, however, the cordovan yields just enough – it adapts to the wrist's shape over time, without ever losing its structure.
The black is not dyed: it's in the leather. The sheen is natural, an exclusive characteristic of this material. Each piece carries the irregularities of the original hide – subtle variations in tone and texture that are not defects, but a signature.

The more you wear it, the more it shines.
Shell cordovan doesn’t soften: it compacts. With wear it develops a deep lustre no polish can imitate, and the warmth of your hand tends to close its marks. Leather for a lifetime.

Frequently asked questions
Why is there no stitching?
It's a design choice. Shell Cordovan lends itself to a continuous line, with no stitching to interrupt the surface. The result is clean, almost metallic in its cut.
How does this strap age?
Shell Cordovan doesn't soften like ordinary leather. It smooths out. It doesn't wear down, it develops a patina. On the wrist it adapts in shape, but the structure remains.
What sizes are available for purchase?
20mm x 16mm and 22mm x 18mm. Length 115mm on the long lug, 75mm on the short one. Thickness 2.5mm.
Is the black colour a coating?
No. The black is in the leather, not on the surface. The sheen comes from the material itself, not from a coating.
Does it also work with Apple Watch?
Yes, this strap is also compatible with Apple Watch. Please let me know your case size so I can confirm the correct width between the two available.
