The Leuven strap uses horse leather that has been vegetable-tanned with leaves and olive tree bark, achieving a beautiful and supple finish which feels very comfortable on the wrist. The tanning process also gives this strap the durability to last, developing a pattern as it ages.
Each strap is a unique and timeless piece, meticulously crafted by hand in a family-run workshop in Oostende, Belgium. Their experienced workers dedicate a great deal of time to creating each watch strap, never compromising on quality and always striving to offer the best possible leathers.
