The grain is the top layer of the skin, where the hair follicles are located, making full grain leather the densest, most durable, and most refined part of the hide. The most sought-after pieces are made from full-grain leather because the natural irregularities of the skin, which add authenticity and uniqueness, are highlighted through a special treatment applied to the leather. This treatment also allows the leather to develop a unique patina over time as it gains a “second life.” Helstons meticulously selects its hides to create jackets that are both sturdy and elegant

“Aniline leathers are high-quality leathers that undergo a special dyeing treatment used on fine hides. Since no additional treatments are applied, aniline leather is considered the most natural, beautiful, and soft leather. Less than 5% of hides can be transformed into aniline leather, as each piece is rigorously selected due to every irregularity being visible on the finished product. Helstons’ aniline leathers are chosen according to strict and demanding criteria to provide optimal quality and safety for our users.”
