About the Leather:
We use Full-grain waxed leather which means the leather is not snuffed, buffed or sanded down like in lower quality products such as top-grain or suede.
Full-grain leather is the strongest and most durable leather and has a tight grain pattern.
As a full grain leather you get the true leather characteristics of the grain which will show beautiful characteristics unlike color-sprayed leathers of less quality which use the spray technique to cover up natural qualities of leather for a clean but less authentic look.
As a waxed full-grain leather please understand these are not always color consistent, just the same as stain on wood varies across a board.
When manipulated (folded/bended) the lighter flesh/crust color will show through the waxed grain giving a nice authentic leather two-tone effect.
This effect is called pull-up and more contrast can be seen on the darker colors (except black which has no pull-up effect).

A rugged long lasting gift for that special reader. A future heirloom.

As with all leather there can be some variation in color even over the same hide. Please understand some shade variation may occur as this is a natural product.

Care Instructions:

Although most leather gets better with age, you may clean your leather from time to time. A lightly wet cloth/t-shirt is the best method, and the leather should then be air dried. Polishes are used to improve shine (sometimes add color) whereas conditioners are used to rehydrate your leather and protect you leather from drying out and cracking. In either case, if you choose to use a leather product make sure to do your research and read product labels for likely outcomes. ALWAYS test a small section of your leather prior to use. *Hashtag Leatherworks, LLC is not responsible for the results of leather products being applied by a customer.

Try to avoid excessive cold which can cause a ghosting/opaqueness appearance on the finish and avoid excessive heat which can cause color transfer of waxes and oils to another object while hot. In both situations bring leather back to a room temperature and wipe with a dry cloth if necessary. Be mindful of the weather and try to avoid your leather getting excessively wet. If it does get wet, try to dry it at room temperature. Leather needs to breath so it does not rot or mildew. If storing your product, consider a breathable, low nap, fabric bag or household item such as a pillowcase.
