Saffiano Oxford Blue

Including a blue strap in our Saffiano collection was a must, and this one certainly lives up to expectations. The deep, intense blue shade is truly fabulous, especially when paired with the matching classic stitch. Its thin cut, precisely at a uniform 2mm, ensures a remarkably comfortable fit on the wrist. An exceptional all-rounder, it effortlessly complements a wide spectrum of watches, from salmon dials to gold cases, and everything in between. A definite essential for all strap aficionados. Each strap tapers to a 16mm buckle, completing the ensemble seamlessly.

Saffiano leather is a full grain calf skin. It has a very distinct crosshatch texture that was designed, developed and patented by Mario Prada in 1913. Prada successfully used this leather to produce an iconic line of signature bags. After the patent expired, the leather was widely adopted and used by luxury brands across the globe.

The leather is hot pressed at 70 degrees to create this beautiful pattern. The process seals the skin and results in a super resilient and easy to clean surface. It’s virtually scratch resistant and the ideal leather for straps. Our Saffiano straps will continue to soften over time, but will keep their shape and colour.
