In 1985, a British astronomer Harold Kroto, and American scientists Richard Smalley and Robert Curl, discovered carbon molecules that held exactly 60 carbon atoms, arranged into a roughly spherical shape. The molecule resembled the futuristic “geodesic” domes invented by Buckminster Fuller in the 1930s. They called the resulting molecule the "buckminsterfullerene."

Our Leather is 5-7oz full grain cowhide, chrome and oil tanned in Milwaukee Wisconsin. It is fully waterproof with a very low water absorption (meaning that liquids bead up and run off the surface).

They are virtually maintenance free and will naturally patina over time from air, sunlight, oils, and other environmental features. Saddle soap can be used to remove dirt and helps condition the leather if that is desired.

All our leather is backed by our 120 year warranty.
