Leather half-back strap full grain vegetable tanned aniline finish for leather goods

The quality of our half-back straps with vegetable tanning and aniline finishes Niagara for your leather goods.

Features of Niagara dyed half back straps :

The saddle leather Niagara is a 100% natural leather. The Niagara leather strap half-back dyed is a full-grain leather, unpressed, uncorrected, with smooth grain and flesh. It is vegetable-tanned and therefore non-allergenic. Vegetable tannins provide firmness and high resistance to elongation. This leather has an aniline finish that preserves its natural appearance. The half-back Niagara dyed strap is available in Black, Chocolate, Havana, Cognac and Victoria aniline finishes. It is heart-fed in a tallow bath (a mixture of paraffin and beef fat), more commonly known as " tallow leather". This food makes for easier cutting and working, as well as greater resistance to water. Tallow ensures maintenance-free leather, as the fat is constantly applied to the surface of the leather, giving it the necessary nourishment and an excellent patina. Thanks to this nourishment, saddle leather Niagara is highly resistant to outdoor use, rejecting any external disturbance (water / salty environment). This makes saddle leather ideal for intensive wear.

Origin of Niagara dyed half back straps :

half-back straps Niagara dyed are sourced fromselected beef and bullfarms in France, Germany, Spain and Italy. To ensure the quality of the leather used in production, a leather traceability process has been set up at Radermecker Tannery. The hides are marked 3 times with 3 identifiers at each stage: on receipt of the hides, enabling traceability of the origin of the hides; during the tanning process; during the finishing process.

Uses of Niagara dyed half back straps :

The Niagara leather strap can be used in leather goods, especially when you need long lengths of leather: belts, bag handles, bracelets, watch straps, collars for dogs and cats, etc. It is the most popular leather for making belts because of its natural finish, resistance to elongation and long life.
It can also be used for tack: halters, snaffles, harnesses, bridle reins, headpieces, uprights, headpieces, nosebands, Straps, throat lashes and girths.
Niagara saddle leather can be finished with our slab waxes available in Black, Chocolate, Havana, Cognac and Victoria.
Leather moulding work can be carried out on Niagara Saddlery leather, as well as leather marking work (hot and cold).
Embossing work on our Niagara leather is not recommended, as the leather will regain its natural thickness when fed in a grease bath, and the embossed patterns will fade over time. For leather embossing work, we recommend our natural Pykara leather in shoulder half shoulder, quarter shoulder and thong shoulder.

Care instructions of Niagara dyed half back straps :

For the care of saddle leather Niagara, thanks to the tallow bath feed, the fat is impregnated throughout the thickness of the saddle leather Niagara, so there is no need to feed over time. Food can be applied to the grain to ensure its greasy appearance or to accelerate the patina of the leather. This care of the grain will ensure a longer life. Our saddle leather Niagara will resist humidity. Just let it dry at room temperature and it will look great again. Because it is fed in a tallow bath (grease), a whitish film of paraffin build-up can form on temperature shocks. Simply rub it off.
