A. Full grain leather is the top layer of the hide. It is more durable and pliable than split leather – the under-layers of the hide. No corrections have been applied to remove scars or natural marks. Maria Yee uses the best U.S. and European hides. They are never stretched to cover more surface area, which weakens the leather.
