Seidel® Domane

Domane (pronounced 'Doh-MAH-nee') may be Seidel's most intriguing tannage. Like their famous Oil Tan, Domane is deeply saturated with oils that make even boot-weight hides as soft as ball gloves—and imbue them with strong pull-up that yields dramatic highlights upon first use. And like Seidel's equally famous Double Shot, Domane is hot-stuffed with waxes that not only protect the leather from the elements but showcase its color and texture with an elegant shimmer. In bright and even light, Domane appears like a heavyweight veg tan, but in directional light, the surface comes to life with brilliant specularity. Finally, unlike Madone, its sister tannage, Domane is a teacore, dyed only on the grain side so the natural tones within the hide will emerge through patination.
