Sheong Shi Tannery - Grey Chrome - 1/1.1mm

Grey Chrome Tan is a chrome-tanned cowhide sourced from Sheong Shi Tannery — a practical, well-priced leather built for makers who need reliable performance without premium overhead.

The surface carries an aniline finish, keeping the grain open and unmasked. The result is a clean, even grey tone that gradually takes on character as it's handled, conditioned, and put to use over time.

At 1/1.1mm, this hide has a firm hand, suited to constructions where structure matters — bifolds, cardholders, and flat pouches being natural fits. The aniline surface takes well to post-finishing. Oils, waxes, and conditioners are absorbed readily, and their effect is visible: colour deepens noticeably with treatment, and the hand feel improves — the leather becomes smoother and more supple with use.
