Leather (Epsom): A heat-pressed, machine-printed calfskin with a fine, regular grain and a slight sheen. It is highly valued for being scratch-resistant, water-resistant, and maintaining a rigid, structured shape over time.

Craftsmanship: Hand-stitched in France using traditional techniques, ensuring high durability and a refined finish.
