stormcrow Report post Posted August 24, 2018 I received my first Horween leather yesterday from A A Crack so I had to quickly try it out. I am very impressed with the quality and with how easy it was to work with. Almost all of my previous work has been done with veg tan that I have dyed myself so it was a refreshing change to just pick up some leather cut it out and stitch. I’m worried though that I already thinking I need more Any tips on finishing horween does your final product need any conditioning etc? Normally I would finish my other veg tan products with resoline or carnauba cream or just some leather conditioner such as sedgwicks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alpha2 Report post Posted August 24, 2018 Which Horween is that? I scored a couple of sides of Chromexcel, and love it! I know there's Derby and Essex. Yours doesn't look at all like mine. Mine has a LOT of oils/waxes/grease in it, and I don't think you could add anything to make it more water resistant! Great pull-up, though.
