All leather used in Vaja products is full grain cowhide. These hides are from the top ten percent of Argentina's leather and are selected for quality, strength, character and grain. They have not been altered in any way thereby allowing the natural markings and characters to show through.
Full grain cowhide is generally much cleaner and has minimal scarring and insect bites. This results in a more expensive product than other altered grain leathers, but we feel this is warranted to produce a product of extremely high quality.
