This is a top grain, aniline-dyed leather that is brushed to remove the top surface of the hide and create a soft nap similar to velvet. Sometimes confused with suede, nubuck is not suede; it is an effect done to the grain side of the hide while suede is made from the less desirable flesh side. The brushing makes the leather very soft but nubuck is more absorbent, making it prone to stains. See our Western Distressed Nubuck leather for yourself today and order a leather sample.
