But how about taking it a step further with a horsehide version? That's what our friends at Flat Head thought. The challenge was significant; Shinki Hikaku's stiff leather is difficult to sew, let alone attach buttons and rivets. Yet, they have done it again. The result is incredible.

They produce extremely unique signature leathers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis leather is called \"Teacore\". It is a horsehide leather that's brown underneath its surface. It is vegetable dyed with mimosa bark for tannins. Mimosa produces a lovely pinkish-brown under colour that stains the leather by absorbing the tannins. That pinkish-brown under shade is the colour of the leather before a finish is added. It's called \"Teacore\" because it's the colour of good strong tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pigment and semi-aniline finish showcase the beautiful texture of the horsehide with an incredible matte black appearance.
