The quality of our vegetable-tanned half-backs andNiagara aniline finishes for your leather goods and harness
Features of saddlery leather Niagara half-back black saddlery leather :
Niagara saddlery leather is 100% natural, full grain unpressed, uncorrected, smooth grain and chair. This leather is vegetable tanning non-allergenic leather. Vegetable tannins make the leather firm and resistant. It is nourished in a tallow bath (a mixture of paraffin and beef fat), more commonly known as " tallow leather". This nourishment makes the leather easier to cut and work, and gives it greater resistance to water. Tallow also ensures maintenance-free leather, as the fat is constantly added to the surface of the leather, giving it the nourishment it needs and an excellent patina. Thanks to this nourishment,Niagara saddlery leather leather is highly resistant to outdoor use, rejecting any external disturbance (water/saline environment). This saddlery leather is therefore suitable for intensive wear.
About the grain:
For this limited-edition collection, we have selected Pécari grain, a distinctive leather characterized by its natural pores, which give it a texture that is both rugged and refined.

Food can be applied to the flower to ensure its greasy appearance or to accelerate the leather's patina. This care of the grain ensures a longer life.
