Pinnacle is a new development in the horsefront leather line from Horween Leather Company. This leather is designed with a strong and durable base tannage, resulting in a final product that is buttery soft and rich in feel. Pinnacle is combination tanned, using chrome tanning with a vegetable re-tannage. New formulations for this product include a proprietary blend of oils being introduced during the tanning process which provide a rich nourishment of the fibers, giving the leather its strength, durability, and soft feel. The leather is then finished with a blend of waxes and aniline dyes, which highlight the unique grain of the horsehide.

Double Horse Fronts:
When compared to Steer, Horse hides have a different fiber structure and are naturally thinner which allows Horween Leather Company to produce a lightweight finished leather.  The grain of the horse hides will show a coarser, more pronounced grain structure and are more abrasion resistant.  Due to the characteristics of the horsehide, the finished leather will display more variation and natural markings as compared to our Bovine leathers. The Double Horse Front (DHF) is one among three cuts of a horsehide — this particular selection of the leather is the whole front portion of the hide, with the Butt being cropped off for the Cordovan and Horsehide strip.
