SoHo
A favorite of the high end leather users, these exceptional hides are made from the finest south German raw material creating a pure full grain aniline for the true leather enthusiast.
With a smooth, silky and pristine grain, SoHo is all about the “natural look” which will show all of nature’s hallmarks beautifully and will develop a patina over time and with use. Dyed for color using an environmentally friendly water-based process that gives SoHo its extremely nice hand. SoHo is then vacuum dried to provide a flat, smooth grain and natural sheen.
Color variation should be expected from the swatch to the actual leather, and one should expect color variation between dye lots, and between and within each hide.

NOTE: Due to color variations on different monitors and color printers, before making exact color and texture matches, we recommend that you request an actual sample to ensure proper color representation as many monitors cannot display colors accurately. CTL Leather is not responsible for color selections made from this website.
NOTE: liquid, food and greasy stains should be immediately absorbed using crepe paper, and only if necessary, the leather should be softly cleaned with warm water and neutral soap. Do not rub the leather where the stain is located.
