Crazy Horse

Crazy Horse is basically a nubuck leather that treated with oil impregnation. It has more supple texture than nubuck leather with similar look from outside. The characters are matte look, casual, and pretty much easy to scratch. They don’t need too often conditioning as they contain extra oil from impregnation process. Often called also as Oiled Nubuck.

Pull-up Leather

Pull-up Leather is a Full Grain that treated with oil impregnation (usually using Chrome as catalyst, also known as Chrome Tanned) so that the hides would contain a high amount of oil. The beauty side of Pull-up is the discolouration when the leather bended or worn so they will show some sign of wear and tear. As it is impregnated by oil, the care guide for Pull-up leather is very easy. Just clean ‘em up everyday and they’re ready to go again.
