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.
·Individually crafted by hand — greater attention to detail and unique character in each piece. Hand-made products can often be repaired by the maker.
·Made by Urbane & Gallant in United States.

·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.

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.
·Priced around $275 (midpoint of $150–$400 for Footwear). At ~15 uses/month, this hits the $1-per-use "worth it" mark in 1.5 years — and falls to roughly 31¢ per use across a 5-year lifespan.
