Leather/Color tiz
tiz
A soft, vegetable-tanned, aniline-dyed calf leather with a suede surface, featuring natural markings that create an antique, “used” look. The leather’s untreated appearance enhances its vintage character, making each piece unique.
With wear, the leather becomes even softer and may stretch significantly, molding to the shape of the foot for a personalized fit. Its natural surface requires careful handling to maintain its distinctive aged aesthetic.

Care Instructions
Vegetable-tanned leathers are highly sensitive to humidity and require careful handling. Wipe dirt off gently using a soft cloth to avoid damaging the surface. Moisture from both inside and outside can cause marks and lead to colour changes, while liquids such as oil and dirt may leave irreversible stains.
As nubuck leather is particularly sensitive to moisture and staining, it should be treated with a waterproofing spray before use for added protection. Slight stains can be carefully removed using a suede brush or a special nubuck cleaning block. Light-coloured variations are especially delicate and difficult to clean, as some stains, such as grass or oily liquids, may be impossible to remove. Nubuck leather should never be treated with shoe polish, as it can alter the texture and appearance.
If a thin white layer appears on the leather, it is simply surplus wax and can be easily removed. To restore the original appearance, gently heat the leather for a moment using a hair dryer, allowing the wax to be absorbed.
