LEATHER Horween Dublin / Side
The Dublin has a strong and distinctive pull-up with a rustic and worn look. It is infused with a rich blend of natural waxes and then ironed to create a smooth surface with a rich tonal appearance that showcases the natural grain. The leather can be used for everything from footwear and clothing to bags, wallets, small leather goods and many other leather products. The Dublin will age beautifully and creates a rich patina over time.

Bloom
If you notice a white powder on your Horween leather, don’t worry—this is called "bloom." Bloom naturally occurs when the oils, waxes, or fats used during the tanning process rise to the surface, especially in cooler storage conditions. This is common in high-quality, full-grain leathers like Horween.
To remove bloom, simply buff the leather with a soft, dry cloth. A bit of warmth can also help. This is not harmful and is actually a sign of well-crafted leather.
