Raw Materials

Leather is a superb natural raw material. An essential material to our craft, a beautiful leather will mould and shape to your natural foot contours and shapes developing its own patina, telling its story of your journey with each and every crease, flex and step.

The majority of our footwear is crafted with leather from UK based and European suppliers with any specialist leathers or hides being sourced from the highest quality specialist supplier.

Our Oak bark tanned leather is sourced from a traditional UK based tannery with a rich history of expert knowledge and skill.
