Cordovan is a rare leather, and whiskey-colored cordovan might as well be made up, but we got our hands on some, and decided to produce a microbatch of 45 pairs in our classic Ranch Boot. This cordovan is vegetable-tanned in Tuscany, Italy, using natural tannins from tree bark, chestnuts and leaves, and the boot is lined with pigskin, with sturdy, gore insets. You never see this style boot in cordovan, and the broad, uninterrupted surfaces will be a magnet for incredible patina.
Cordovan is the muscle sheath of a horse’s backside. It’s unspeakably strong and easy to clean, and ‘rolls’ rather than creases, gently changing color over time to reveal the character of leather beneath the pigment. Lighter shades are extremely rare because the pelt must be completely free of blemishes and scarring which show through with lighter pigments.
