PRODUCTION & DESIGN

Add a touch of style and color to your lifeless keys, all the while easily telling them apart with these Leather Key Covers. Sturdily handmade with full grain leather and double stitching for everyday use, these key covers have a small hole for your keyring, allowing for quick access.  

The leather we use, originating from our well established supplier Compiel, is nothing but Full Grain Leather, and if you don't know what that is, then make sure you're sitting comfortably. There are 4 types of leather, and they differ in quality. You have Full Grain Leather, Top Grain Leather, Genuine Leather and Bonded Leather.

We'll start with Bonded Leather. It's more of an insult to call Bonded Leather a leather. It's basically lots of different parts of leather glued and pressed together to make one piece. It's cheap, not at all durable and it will fall apart within weeks. In short, it's no good and we are completely against it.

Genuine Leather is in third place in the running, and is the layer of the hide that remains after the top is taken off for the better quality leathers. This surface can often be given a makeover with a finish, sometimes a spray paint that can give it the look of a better quality. Not something that happens in our house. Don't settle for this, you can do better.

Top Grain Leather is the second highest grade that you'll find. A leather taken from the top layer of the hide that is treated, sanded and refined. It's a good quality leather, but not good enough for Hide and Drink. You can still do better, though, go one more step higher.

Full Grain Leather is the best you can get when it comes to leather, there's no competition here, and Hide and Drink is its biggest fan. Full Grain Leather comes from the top layer of the hide, and has all of the grain, hence its name. It's the best leather than you can buy, and the only leather that we use. You can stop looking now, you've found the cream of the crop.

The tanning process is something that we take pride in. Our rustic leather is created through removing the hair, extracting the moisture, taking out the oils and, of course, the natural preservatives. The leather is placed in a large container filled with new oils, coloring and preservatives, and there it takes on its new color and thus its new personality. The finishing process consists of pressing the leather with heated plates, hung up to dry and sprayed and finished with a sealer. Finally it is pressed once more and then ready for its transformation, in which it is carefully handcrafted by the diligent locals of Pastores, Guatemala, where our workshop is located.

Best KEY Cover ever!

These leather key covers look and feel great. The key cover effectively increases the size of the key "head", making turning the key easier. The colors allow me to quickly find the correct key. The only issue I has was the very small size of the "hole" in the cover which I enlarged with a hole punch. The snug fit on the keys is good, they do not slide around inside the cover. Some reviewers complained about the cover not fitting their keys, but this is really a function of the snug cover fit on the key. To get the very snug cover onto the key, just simply soak the leather cover for about 6~10 minutes in water, this will allow the leather to stretch and fit over the key. The leather will then shrink while drying, again providing a snug fit on the key "head".

Got exactly what I asked for

High quality, and looked exactly like they did in the pictures. Be forewarned though, the fit is very tight
