full-grain leather
Top-quality animal skin
Full-grain leather is the highest grade of leather, made from the outermost layer of animal hide with the natural grain intact.
Unlike corrected or split leathers, it retains the original texture, including natural marks and imperfections.
Full-grain leather develops a patina over time and is prized for durability in quality boots, bags, and furniture: These full-grain leather boots will last decades.
