Meet Mr. Gripper in Horween Bourbon Shell Cordovan.For hands that appreciate absurd levels of refinement.

We got our hands on a few Horween Shell Cordovan chips in a rare, natural Bourbon color from the iconic, over century old Horween Leather Tannery in Chicago. Not barrels. Not bottles. Just chips. The kind that make a leather nerds heart skip a beat. And when they’re gone, they’re gone. Which is exactly what these will be, soon.

At DEFY, weve always had a thing for Whiskey. But Bourbon hits different. Its smoother, deeper, a little moodier. Same goes for the leathers. Both are beautiful. One just makes you question your life choices in a slightly more luxurious tone.

So we made a tiny batch of Mr. Grippers. Hand-cut. Hand-finished. Handheld. Built in Chicago by a team of people who treat leather like religion and patina like prophecy. The hand feel? Somewhere between “damn” and “what is this even made of?”

This is the kind of gear you pass down someday. Or hoard quietly like a weirdo. No judgment.

A few were made. Fewer remain. Grasp accordingly.
