Maverick Leather’s Hermann Oak Visit - Part 1
“From Rawhides to the Pits”
This one-minute video gives a quick glimpse into a day at Hermann Oak’s historical tannery.
While the concept of vegetable tanning is rather simple, creating world-renowned leathers for over a hundred years takes dedication, structure, trust and just plain ol’ hard work. We hope these videos provide you all with respect for the time and expertise it takes to produce a consistent product, from an inconsistent material.
Thank you to the entire team @hermannoakleather for taking the time to walk us through the tannery and its processes (even the behind-the-scenes ones 👀). From rawhides entering the beamhouse, to Old World Harness on the packing table; Hermann Oak’s main mission is simple: Give Respect, Earn Trust, and Support Each Other. We couldn’t agree more.

Maverick’s May Sale: Save 10% on Horween Leathers – including Dark Mahogany Waxed.
Horween Dark Mahogany Waxed offers a deep-brown tone with a rich, natural look and plenty of character. Vegetable-retanned leather featuring a semi-aniline finish and a waxed, corrected grain that brings out depth, variation, and subtle movement across the hide.
Medium to soft in temper for a nice balance of body and flexibility, making it useful for projects that need some structure without feeling overly stiff. Dark Mahogany is a versatile brown with warmth and depth, making it a strong choice for wallets, bags, pouches, notebook covers, dopp kits, and other everyday carry goods.
The waxed finish helps give the leather a more lived-in look over time while still maintaining a clean overall presentation. Because of the waxed finish and the natural character of the hide, expect some variation in color, grain, and overall appearance from piece to piece. Available on our website in STANDARD & TUMBLED variations.
These are second-run hides. This means they may have cosmetic imperfections like scars, brands, holes, loose grain, drawn grain, tannery swatch-cuts, or a slight variation from the target color. Many times, we have also created our own color names for these hides, and these should not be referenced to identify any leathers not sold here at Maverick.
