Some hides come from woolly fiber sheep with a thick, plush fleece; others from short-coated hair sheep; and many from everything in between. We tan everything we can, embracing the full diversity of what each animal has to offer. This means no two hides are alike in texture, color, or character — and that's exactly what makes each one special.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_13sb5_107\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_13sb5_107\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMachine wash cold on a delicate cycle.
