MPG Industria - Apollo - Fuchsia

Sourced from MPG Industria, one of Italy's most respected tanneries, the Apollo line of vegetable-tanned double shoulders is a standout choice for craftspeople who refuse to compromise on material quality. Cut at 4.5–5.5 oz, they offer a versatile weight well-suited for bags, wallets, sheaths, and a wide range of leather goods. With a firm temper around 7/10, a tight grain structure, and minimal surface defects, these shoulders are as reliable to work with as they are beautiful to look at.

The Fuchsia colorway is custom color requested by The Leather Reserve. Like all Apollo leathers, it is deeply saturated and consistent across the hide, a testament to the quality of Italian vegetable tanning at its best. Like all vegetable-tanned leather, it will develop a rich patina over time — deepening in character with every hour of use.
