This is something a bit different. Kudu are wild antelopes that live on the plains of Africa. They are very hardy animals, living through both the tough arid seasons as well as the lush rainy seasons and these hides show every scar related to life in one of the wildest part of the world. This means your strap will be unique – the markings ensure that no two African Kudu straps will look the same.
This African Kudu leather is very soft, and is left un-dyed to retain the natural look of the leather, scars and all. If you’re looking for something very rustic but extremely comfortable then this is one for you.
As is the case with all the kudu leather I use, the skins are the result of the seasonal kudu cull mandated by the South African government.
The strap photographed for this page was stitched with natural thread, but butterscotch & light brown stitching will work well with this leather too. To see the options for thread colour see the stitching colours page.
Straps produced with African Kudu leather will be approx 4.5mm thick.
