About the leather

In general you should note that small scratches, wrinkles and insect bites on the leather should not be considered faults but the signature of nature.
The quality of raw hides and tanning methods has a significant influence on the final appearence and looks of the leather. Cheaper leathers are often sprayed with a surface to hide faults or embossed to look like croco leather or any other pattern.

It is most important to stress that no leather sustains water, so it is always adviseable to wipe your bag with a soft cloth if you have been out into rainy conditions.  Also you can use a leather protection spray to make the bag more sustainable to weather conditions.

Our specific leathers

[TEXAS]
[TEXAS] is the neck piece from bull calves, known as avancorpi. The wrinkles in the leather are the natural wrinkles from the animal and recognized by afficionados as a seal of quality. The amount of wrinkles are most distinct near the neck and will be less visible the farther away from the neck you get.  HANSSON solely uses leather from European animals, typically from Italy and France.

Many companies making products of apparently similar leather use raw hides from Russia and Eastern Europe countries. These raw hides have a lower grade as they have many faults. This difference is a result of the upbringing of the animals. Bovine living under good conditions and eating the right diet give in the end a better raw material.  HANSSON has made a choice - we want our [TEXAS] leather to be from best quality. 

The tanning process of [TEXAS] leather from HANSSON is known as vegetable. This is the tanning process that is most gentle to nature. The fluids used in the process are extracted from bark and other natural ingredients.

[TEXAS] leather is coloured by hand to obtain the special effect which is visible in the brown colour especially.  After colouring leather is hand polished to give the right shine.
