nub

nub - nubuk

Vegetable-tanned thick nubuck calf leather sourced from an Italian (Tuscany) supplier. Some light colors are metal-free tanned instead of vegetable-tanned to ensure color stability. Features a sanded grain side that creates a suede surface. The color will get darker with wear and exposure to sunlight.
The dye can stain your feet. It gets softer with use and may stretch.

Care Instruction nub

Nubuck leather is sensitive to moisture and staining and rather difficult to clean and thus should be treated with waterproofing spray prior to use. Slight stains can be cleaned using a suede brush or a special nubuck cleaning block. The light colours are particularly delicate and very difficult to clean. Some stains such as grass or oily liquids cannot be removed at all. Nubuck leather should never be treated with shoe polish.
