Aviator is a full aniline dyed steer hide. Utilizing the most progressive methods available, Optima adheres to an entirely non-polluting system, where our tanneries follow the strictest guidelines to ensure minimal waste, high quality and a product that is environmentally sound. Fresh hides are selected for this article, in order to provide an excellent soft hand and drape. Aviator has an elegant aged distressed look due to the oils applied during the finishing process. This leather scratches and marks easily but in time will rub out. The pull-up characteristics of this leather will also provide contrast in both luster and color. When upholstered, Aviator is designed so that it will give any piece a sophisticated authentic aged look. Aviator has a protective clear coat that provides additional protection for excellent wear ability.

Colors Available: Cognac , Reddish Brown and Café.
