OUR LEATHERS
LUDLOW
GRAINED
After embossing the leather, to add a natural grained effect, our artisans then use a special 'tumbling' treatment to bring out the natural grain, softening the fibers to ensure a luxuriously yielding texture.
PANAMA
CROSS GRAIN
Our Panama leather has become a Smythson icon, borrowing its telltale cross grain texture from our famous Panama diary, designed by Frank Smythson in 1908. Lightweight, flexible, and hard-wearing.
MARA
CROCODILE-EMBOSSED
One of our most iconic collections, our Mara leather is instantly identified by its glossy, crocodile print finish. Our artisans print and dye the leather to create this effect, before finally brushing the leather by hand.
