Hides were selected from older cattle, tanned longer, and sewn with heavier thread and hand-finished seams. By the early 2010s, most mid-market production had moved to bonded and corrected leathers to hit lower price points. Sold Attire sourced this piece through our curated Japan auction channel, where the vintage leather Cairo market takes these older pieces seriously because the material itself cannot be re-sourced.
