C.F. Stead Winter Smoke Kudu Jamaica

Kudu Jamaica in Winter Smoke offers heritage footwear makers a versatile dark neutral tone suitable for dress boots, Western boots, and refined footwear styles. The embossed texture and glossy finish complement the leather's sturdy yet supple properties, providing both structural integrity and comfort in finished applications.

Winter Smoke Kudu Jamaica maintains the standard specifications of the Kudu Jamaica line. The leather has a thickness of 1.8-2.2 mm and an average skin size ranging from 12-16 square feet. The material features a full grain structure with a semi-aniline finish, preserving the natural characteristics of the kudu hide while providing the distinctive embossed and tipped surface treatment.

The Winter Smoke colorway presents a dark grey to taupe tone enhanced by the two-tone gloss finish characteristic of Kudu Jamaica leather. The embossing process creates a distinctive texture that adds visual depth to the surface while the tipping technique produces subtle color variation across the grain. Natural features including scars, scratches, and small holes from the animal's wild origins remain visible, contributing to each hide's unique character. The combination of the dark Winter Smoke color with the embossed texture creates a refined appearance suitable for both formal and casual heritage footwear applications.
