Using only top-grade, heavy U.S. steer hides, along with the finest natural tree bark in their tanning process, creating leather with exceptional richness and texture. The hides are precisely tanned to achieve a firm, strong, and dense fiber structure. Drum-stuffed with heavy tallow, resulting in exceptional weather resistance, thickness, ease of cutting, and long-lasting durability. “Traditional Harness just like your Grandfather used.”
