Austin is a high-end aniline leather from premium Brahma hides, the leather has a crackle effect magnifying the beauty of a rustic leather. Pretty much like water the subtle sheen enhances the rustic character of this very charming leather. This look is further complimented by the plum hand of a natural leather and a beautiful, round luxurious smoothness. The leather creates a warm comforting feel. Natural markings enhance the natural beauty of this leather, adding to its classic yet rustic character. Austin is imitating the true nature of full grain aniline leathers, the most genuine type of leathers, as it retains all of the original texture and markings of the original hide. Inherent shade variations associated with the tanning and dyeing of this elegant protected aniline leather only enhances its sensational visual appeal. Visible insect-bites, brands and scars from healed wounds add to the character of the leather.
For cleaning use a damp cloth with a mild soap or leather cleaner.
