Africa is tough and rugged - so are the animals and they bear the scars to prove it. These adorn the leather with character as they reflect the ‘trophies’ of the ‘struggle’… That narrow escape through the ‘haak en steek’ the night the lions came! The crash through the boma into the mielie patch for a taste of sweetness! The ticks that have been rubbed off on the hardekool stumps. The battle scars from fighting off rogue males.
These powerful icons of the past are immortalised in the leather that we use - it’s alive with the haunting accounts of survival in Africa Look on them with pride and admiration, they have been earned. Amazing how, in time, so much of that character rubs off onto the wearer, giving the warm comforting feeling of success that comes to those who make it in this tough, harsh and stunningly beautiful country. No attempt has been made to disguise the characteristics of nature in this article.
