What is Crazy Horse leather?

Despite its name, Crazy Horse leather doesn’t come from horses.Crazy Horse leather is a type of genuine leather, made from cowhide. It uses the top layer of the hide, which uses all of the natural grain. Top-grain leather shaves down the hide’s top layer and often thins it out to make it more malleable.

Is crazy horse leather any good?

Crazy horse leathers are produced by applying a specific kind of wax to a full grain cowhide leather surface which has been buffed and smoothed out. This process results in the abrasion of the treated area changing its color. The transformation in its texture is not only an immediate one but allows it to change with time also, exhibiting an antique effect. In many situations, crazy horse leather has very little mechanical processing and is done entirely by hand to assure its quality.
