Renowned for its unmatched quality and timeless elegance, Italian leather stands as the hallmark of exceptional craftsmanship. At Jasperosso, the leather we select defines not only the aesthetic appeal of our custom made sneakers and shoes but also their feel and durability. We proudly offer an exclusive range of premium calf leathers, each with distinct characteristics tailored to diverse tastes and preferences.

ITALIAN FINE CALF SUEDE

Suede is a soft, velvety leather that is made from the underside of the calfskin, providing a luxurious feel and a matte finish. Italian suede is known for its deep, rich textures and refined quality. It’s a popular choice for those seeking a sophisticated, casual look. Suede is typically softer than traditional leather, offering comfort and flexibility, making it an ideal material for shoes and sneakers that require a more relaxed and supple feel.

ITALIAN PRINCESS CALF

Princess leather is a smooth and refined calf leather, typically treated to achieve a slightly glossy finish while maintaining its natural softness. Italian Princess leather is often used in high-end fashion and luxury footwear because of its ability to combine elegance with versatility. It provides a fine balance between a soft, luxurious texture and a subtle sheen, making it perfect for those looking for understated sophistication.

PEBBLE GRAIN CALF

Pebble grain leather features a textured surface, often created by embossing the leather to give it a pebbled or dimpled appearance. This texture not only enhances the visual appeal of the leather but also provides durability and resistance to wear and tear. The rugged texture is ideal for sneakers that need a distinctive, stylish look with added durability, while still maintaining the luxurious feel of calf leather.

PATENT CALF

Patent leather is calf leather treated with a high-gloss finish, giving it a shiny, mirror-like appearance. This type of leather is known for its striking, reflective surface, often used in high-fashion footwear. Italian patent leather is meticulously treated to maintain a glossy finish while keeping the leather’s structure intact. It’s a bold, elegant choice for sneakers and shoes that need to make a statement with sophistication and shine.

BALTIMORA CALF

Baltimora leather is a specially treated, flexible calf leather used primarily for our sneakers. It combines the luxurious qualities of calfskin with enhanced flexibility and stretch, making it an ideal choice for footwear that needs to move with you. This leather is soft, pliable, and resilient, perfect for creating sneakers that offer maximum comfort without compromising on style. Its flexibility ensures that the sneakers can adapt to the foot’s natural movement, making them perfect for active wear.

POLISHED CALF

Our polished calf leather has a high-gloss finish. The smooth, shiny surface is typically applied through a careful polishing process that adds an extra layer of elegance.

ANTIQUED CALF

Antiqued leather is a specially treated calf leather that gives a vintage, worn-in look with rich depth and character. The leather undergoes a unique process that highlights subtle variations in color and texture, creating a timeworn effect that enhances its visual appeal. This type of leather has a sophisticated, rustic charm, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a shoe with both history and personality. As the leather ages, it naturally develops a beautiful patina, adding even more uniqueness over time.

EXOTIC EFFECT CALF

Exotic effect leather refers to calf leather that has been specially treated or embossed to imitate the appearance of exotic animal hides such as crocodile, alligator, or snake. This treatment allows designers to achieve the unique textures and patterns of exotic skins without using actual animal products. The luxurious appearance of exotic effect leather adds an element of refinement and extravagance to sneakers and shoes, making it a popular choice for clients seeking a distinctive, premium look.

SELECTING THE RIGHT LEATHER

When choosing the ideal leather for your custom made sneakers, each option offers distinct qualities and an inherent style that enhances the overall design.
