G2 vs G2E Leather Difference

 

Our fine leather products are made from natural 100% genuine hides that are range bred and grown. There may be natural range markings in the grain of the leather. This is normal for top grain hide, and adds to the beauty and character of your Urban Carry leather product.

 

 

For our saddle-grade leather holsters we use a mineral or chrome tanning process, quite similar to a pickling process, which allows the leather to retain a uniform shape that will not shrink or crack.  Chrome tanned leather will not develop a patina as quickly or to the same degree as vegetable tanned leather and will maintain its color and shape throughout its lifetime.  Chrome tanned leather is often softer and more supple - an important feature when placed against the skin.  It is also fairly resistant to water, stains and heat making it an exceptional choice for an inside the waistband leather holster that will withstand the humidy yet remain breathable.  

  

  

 

 

For our English Bridle holsters and gun belts, the natural imperfections are removed and an extensive tanning process is applied.  The holsters are thoroughly greased and finished creating a strong and durable medium that can survive excessive humidity and skin-to-skin contact, with proper care, for typically 10 years or more.
