    Leather is expensive, and ordering online is a gamble. Here are my novice, amateur first impressions of this product.
    “Dante espresso” is some of the nicest leather I’ve ever seen, period. What an amazing animal this must’ve come from. I’m gonna have to up my game, so I can do it justice!
    Nearly all of the bison leather you’ll find online will be chrome tanned—this is a rare exception. Mind you, most leather labeled “buffalo” is of Asian origin (but often people use it to refer to bison)… not that there’s anything wrong with that. End Asian hate. I’d just much rather support American businesses/products… which I assume this would be one of. Both varieties can exhibit the lumpy, “shrunken” grain texture, however, this leather’s surfaces show no hint of any texture other than smooth. The picture provided gives a good indication of the color (so brown, it’s nearly black), but it is glossier and richer in real life. The fibers are so densely packed, it almost kinda looks/cuts like it has two grain sides (the flesh side is finished/pasted, so if you like thick belts, this could work).
    But, beautiful as it is, this leather’s applicatios are rather “niche.” I was expecting it to be heavy—it is heaviER. The reviewer of one of the other colors said he made a lovely toolbox with this stuff, which seems like an excellent project for a firm, thick, shiny leather such as this.
    If you can put a leather of this weight/temper to good use (that’s a big IF), then the quality of this product will no doubt add value to your projects.
