The Shinki Collection
From Himeji to Northampton
Shinki Shell Cordovan is one of the rarest leathers in the world, tanned by hand in Himeji over the course of six months then brought to Northampton and handled by a small team of makers who have spent years working with rare leathers.
A collaboration between two craft businesses, a tannery in Japan and a factory in Northampton, who share the same starting point: the best that is possible, by staff who know their craft.
