LEATHER SPECIAL EFFECTS
“PULL-UP” LEATHERS
This is a pure aniline, full top grain leather. After the aniline dying process has been completed, the hides are
impregnated with oils or wax to give the leather a soft, natural hand. The oils and waxes give the leather a
characteristic called "Pull-Up." The unique tanning process of pull-up leathers causes the color in the leather to
dissipate and become less intense when the leather is stretched, enhancing the natural markings.
All leathers will fade under direct sunlight. However, these leathers are most susceptible to fading at a
quicker rate. It will also stain if food or liquids are not wiped off immediately. Natural body oils will also
shade the leather slightly, but this shading will blend in with the oils of the leather, giving it a greatly desired
patina.
How To Clean
- (Cleaning Code A - Aniline) CLEANING IS RECOMMENDED BY USING DISTILLED
WATER AND SUDS FROM NEUTROGENA® SOAP ON A DAMPENED SPONGE, FEATHERING THE
MOISTENED AREA. RINSING IS NOT NECESSARY BECAUSE NEITHER NEUTROGENA® NOR
DISTILLED WATER CONTAIN ANY SOLIDS. PATTING WITH A WHITE, CLEAN, DRY TOWEL TO
REMOVE EXCESS MOISTURE IS RECOMMENDED. OVER THE YEARS THIS LEATHER MAY
DEVELOP A CHARACTER AND SHEEN OF ITS OWN FROM BODY OILS AND USE, RETURNING MANY
PLEASANT MEMORIES.
“NUBUCK” LEATHERS
Nubuck is a top grain pure aniline leather. It is drum-dyed and polished to remove a slight hair layer of the skin.
This process produces a subtle nap, or track, creating a suede-like appearance but is more elegant than suede.
How To Clean
– (Cleaning Code N - Nubuck) CLEANING IS RECOMMENDED BY USING A SUEDE
BRUSH, DRY POWDER STAIN REMOVER, OR LEATHER MASTERS® NUBUCK CLEANER.
