Pull-Up Leather: Why Marks Are Part Of The Character

A material note for customers who want leather that visibly changes through wear.

Pull-up leather lightens at bends and pressure points because oils and waxes move inside it.

Pull-up is a behavior, not only a look. When the leather bends, oils and waxes shift, and the color can appear lighter in that area.

Who should choose it

Choose pull-up leather if you want a pair that records movement and does not need to stay visually perfect. Avoid it if every scratch will bother you.
