Nubuck leather made by French tanner Rémy Carriat. We use Taurillon leather, which has a luxurious feel, excellent durability, flexibility, and high fiber density. It is also called Taurillon nubuck. It is characterized by a soft texture that surpasses that of high-quality velvet, and the beautiful grain and vivid coloring give it a great presence, making it a supreme masterpiece.
Taurillon leather is a type of cowhide that also includes calfskin and cowhide. Taurillon leather is more expensive than regular cowhide due to the rarity of the bull's calf hide, and is more durable than regular calfskin due to its toughness. The backing material is "ZERMATT". This is also a high-quality leather that has been treated to be water-repellent, feels very nice to the touch, and is luxurious, but it is the perfect leather for the backing material of strap.
