THE STAR RIDER - EXTRA-RIGID SHELL & HAND-DYED (HORWEEN horsehide)

Made with 8oz HORWEEN horsehide, tanned alongside their shell cordovan. This leather develops a rich patina with age and use.
 
"THE STAR RIDER", is a rugged yet refined hand-dyed case, using a custom, in-house blend created exclusively for this piece. Learn more about TELLER's hand-dyeing process here.
