🌿 About the Leather – C.F. Stead Crazy Cow (UK)
This notebook cover is made from Crazy Cow leather by C.F. Stead, a historic tannery in Leeds, England, known worldwide for producing rich, rugged leathers with character and durability.
Why Crazy Cow Leather Is Special:
★ Unique distressed finish – Waxed and tumbled to reveal natural marks and variation
★ Supple yet durable – Tough enough for everyday use, yet flexible in the hand
★ Pull-up effect – Shows lighter tones when bent or stretched, adding visual depth
★ No two alike – Each hide has its own unique grain, scars, and texture
★ Beautiful wear-in – Develops its own rich patina over time with handling
This leather tells its own story, and with use, it becomes something unmistakably yours.
