Josef Seibel : Burgess Shoe

Deerskin Products: Supple and strong, this is a leather that doesn't easily wear out, but just quietly gets better and better. Deerskin leather is a very special gift of nature, it is no wonder that the Native Americans used it for their clothing and shoes. Tremendously versatile, it molds and contours to the foot with incredible ease. It is comfortable and rugged - ranking as the third strongest leather available, yet giving a comforting feel to the touch.

Care for Deerskin: Deerskin is easy to care for. It will stay soft even after repeatedly getting wet and dry. Because of this it is not necessary to treat it with a protection from water. Many leather protectors will darken the leather and/or affect the breathability of the deerskin. We recommend that you test any leather care product first to insure the results that you desire. Most soiled spots can be gently hand washed off using a mild soap and water. IvoryŽ soap is a good choice. You should always let the leather dry naturally.
