Product Description

A premium choice for footwear and leathercraft, Rubetta Box Calf Leather offers the perfect balance of refined elegance and dependable durability. Supplied as a full skin, the leather features a smooth, polished finish that makes it ideal for high-end shoe uppers and luxury leather goods.

This calf leather is sourced for its fine grain and minimal imperfections, making it a go-to material for precise, clean-cut work. The "box" finish refers to its semi-gloss surface - firm yet supple - with just enough shine to elevate the final product without appearing overly glossy.

Key Features:

  • Type: Box calf leather – fine grain with a smooth, semi-gloss finish

  • Colour:  Various

  • Size: Full skin (typically 1.6–2.2m² depending on the hide)

  • Thickness: Consistent and suitable for shoe uppers, insoles, linings, and orthotic applications

  • Touch: Firm hand with just enough flexibility for shaping and forming

  • Use cases: Bespoke shoemaking, orthopaedic footwear, saddlery, small leather goods, and repairs

Whether you’re making a pair of traditional brogues, recovering an orthotic insole, or building up a custom piece, Rubetta Box Calf delivers on both look and function.
