Leather 101: Everything (almost) you want to know… @AshlandLeather & @Shellvedge

Excited to share this conversation I had with Phil from Ashland Leather. We cover many topics from shell cordovan, hatch grain leather, as well as boots, sizing and if it’s worth paying for premium goods. We had a few technical issues with the audio and video in zoom, but hopefully you’ll agree the value in the info outweighs that.
