Download PDF Sales Sheet Chamois is a line of solid suede with three embossed and laser-cut options in 10 beautiful colors. In all, the Chamois line offers designers 40 different color/texture options. The plain version is a rich and luxurious “ultranap” cowsuede imbued with pure aniline dyes. Suede is the center horizontal split of the hide, smaller yet thicker than the grain or skin surface. Like the suede used for shoes and accessories, Chamois leather is saturated with protective agents during the drum-dyeing process, creating a water-resistant finish.

However, because this leather is not sprayed with a sealant topcoat and is a pure aniline, it is vulnerable to oil and grease, and may fade in direct sunlight.
