Shinki Antique Horsehide has subtle differences compared to the other tanneries, it has a beautiful polished luster and a less waxy feeling. The horsehide has a dense grain adding durability and resistance. The Antique leather is an aniline finish showing off its natural grain. The benefits of an aniline finish is the beautiful patina it will develop as it ages.
