Product Overview
V1 Double Shoulders from Sepici Tannery represent the purest form of traditional vegetable-tanned leather. Each hide is tanned slowly using a secret antique recipe rich in oak, chestnut, mimosa, and quebracho extracts, resulting in a leather full of character, aroma, and durability.
