What are the most popular Shell Cordovan colors? Of course it’s Horween color #8 (thanks to Alden shoes).
Burgundy is not the most popular color. The most searched for leather accessories are black and light brown. Blue is also popular (thanks to blue jeans, because many people buy belts and wallets in the color of their pants).
What colors of Shell Cordovan do you like? Maybe Natural, because it ages beautifully. Or the trendy “Marbled” colors?
For example, I will show you my Shell Cordovan (ROCADO) watch straps. The colors are listed from top to bottom: black, burgundy, brown, cognac, whisky, navy blue, green, red, purple, olive, gray.
Horween color 8 shell cordovan is the most popular color of leather. It’s an obvious fact. I think it’s thanks to the shoe brand Alden. The majority of Alden boots and loafers are exactly burgundy color. And the most popular tannery is Horween. And the “burgundy” color of the shell cordovan is called “#8”.
I do not understand the phenomenon of the popularity of the “Marbled” Shell Cordovan leather colors. These are just not fully colored pieces of material. It’s defective! Or is there something I don’t understand?)
My new favorite color of Shell Cordovan leather from Italian tannery CLOE is “Gun Metal”.
