VINTAGE HORWEEN CHROMEXCEL® LEATHER STRAP - TAN

Founded 115 years ago, Horween Leather Co is one of the oldest Tannery in the USA.

With some of its customers selling leather products such as wallets, bags, and even our beloved watch straps, the last tannery in Chicago has made a name for itself through the last century and their leather has reached the global markets in regions like Asia.

Horween’s specialty is producing the Chromexcel, Dublin, and Shell Cordovan leather. The latter is a durable leather from horse rumps (the buttock) of a horse. They are also one of the last producers of this kind of leather.

Chromexcel is commonly found in boat shoes, belts, and many small leather goods. Furthermore, Horween is the only tannery that’s producing this kind of leather since the 1900s.
