Aniline. Aniline leathers are beautiful leathers that show the hide's natural markings and unique grain. They do not have a protective coating and are susceptible to fading and discoloration from light and extreme temperatures. What makes these leathers unique is how they age over time, while maintaining their durability and comfort.
