What to Consider

Materials & Construction

·Leather — Quality leather develops character and a patina with age — it gets better, not worse. Can last decades with basic maintenance.
·Full-grain — The highest grade of leather — uses the entire hide with natural grain intact. This is the strongest, most durable leather available and develops a rich patina over time.
·Hand-stitching is stronger than machine stitching because each stitch is independently locked. If one stitch breaks, the rest hold — unlike chain-stitch machines where one break can unravel a seam.
·Made by Slowear in Italy.

·Leather — Condition every 3-6 months to prevent drying and cracking. Avoid prolonged water exposure. Store in a breathable bag, never plastic.
·⚠ Avoid "bonded leather" or "genuine leather" — these are the lowest grades. Bonded leather is essentially glued scraps that peel and flake within 1-2 years. Look for "full-grain" or "top-grain" for real longevity.
·Full-grain — Condition every few months. Minor scratches blend into the patina naturally — they add character rather than damage.

Sustainability

·Slowear is recognized for sustainable practices across their product line.

Cost Per Use

·Leather — A well-made leather bag or boot can last 10-20 years, making the cost per year very low compared to replacing synthetic alternatives every 1-2 years.
·Full-grain — Full-grain leather products often last 20+ years, making them more economical over time despite higher upfront costs.
·Slowear is known for products that hold up over years of use — which typically means a lower cost per use than cheaper alternatives that need replacing.
·Priced around $100 (midpoint of $50–$150 for Footwear). At ~15 uses/month, this hits the $1-per-use "worth it" mark in 7 months — and falls to roughly 11¢ per use across a 5-year lifespan.
