Care instruction
Surface wipe only. Clean gently by hand with mild soapy damp cloth.
Nappa Leather Custom Printed
Full-grain Nappa leather is real leather with a thickness of 0.7-0.9 mm. It is the best grain of leather that is available and comes in a choice of either Nappa leather texture, which has a stamped 'Bison' grain, or smooth Nappa leather which has a flat face. The Nappa leather, custom printed, is sourced via Italian tanneries for printing and finishing in our own in-house atelier studio. This work is by hand and to order. As a full-grain, bovine-calf leather, it is graded to the highest level for print and manufacturing quality.
Surface textures
There is a choice of surface textures for Nappa leather, custom printed. A smooth Nappa leather which has a flat face, and a Nappa leather texture option which is debossed. This means that the 'Bison' grain has been stamped into the leather. Our latest printing technology prints directly onto both flat and textured surface, and penetrates deep into the fibres so that your design will be completely undisturbed by any surface texture.
Print detail
Both of our Nappa leathers, custom printed, have a white base tone, so your colours will appear strong and rich. You can print fine lines up to 2pt with exceptional detail, and these will display clearly and beautifully. Our up-to-date printing technology means that you can print any colour, whether it is a solid colour, images or patterns. Digital printing on Nappa leather produces beautiful results.
Usage
Nappa leather, custom printed, has so many uses, as it is such a versatile and hard-wearing material. Popular uses are bags, belts, jackets and skirts. This leather is not suitable for children's toys or pet products though, due to the risk of ink being forcefully removed and ingested.
Frequently asked questions on Soft White Nappa Texture 0.7-0.9mm/Soft White Nappa Smooth 0.7-0.9mm:
Will my nappa leather or my print wear out?
Provided you make sure that you use appropriate leather care, then your prints will last for years to come. Nappa leather, custom printed, is rub proof, and the ink is as strong as the leather itself.
Will my leather go hard over time?
No, it won't. Nappa leather keeps its original handle throughout its lifetime. This means that it is not going to stiffen over time. Your Nappa leather, custom printed, can be folded, bent or even stretched and has great anti-wrinkle and low crease properties. The Nappa leather texture option doesn't show creases due to the rick texture, and you will only be able to see very light wrinkling on the smooth Nappa, and only when you fold smooth face to smooth face.
Why are different leathers offered in different sizes?
This is due to the where the leather is sourced from. The maximum print size of our digital printed nappa leathers is 130 x 65 cm.
You have the amazing designs, but do you have the amazing place to sell?

You the designer, control the products and designs from wherever you are, from home, the office, even on the go. Meanwhile the orders start to roll in and you get commissions fast.
Print Guideline
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi; this means that no resizing of your file occurs, preventing any interpolation.
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
We advise providing images in the RGB colour space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best colour results.What does this mean? In your editing software choose RGB as the working space, and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
Maximum dimensions
The maximum dimensions of the leather will depend on the type of leather. You will find more information on each leather product page. If you'd like to order more, you can increase the quantity, with a built in automatic volume discount too. The maximum print width of each leather can be found on the individual leather pages or in our design interface.
Do I need to incorporate white space within my design if I want a border or some cutting space?
Yes, that might help you! Always incorporate any extra space or boarders into your purchased fabric size. We trim squarely around fabric samples and fabric prints, leaving approximately 5mm white space. Cutting neatly on the line has an additional fee.
Do you print on leather a customer supplies?
Unfortunately not; we like to test meticulously so that we know what gets best results on our materials, and our facilities cater perfectly to them.
What is the situation with material shrinkage?
As we use the newest printing technology for printing on leather, there is no shrinkage with the the material during our processing at all.

Can I print on both sides of the leather?
Unfortunately, we do not offer printing on both sides of the leather.
Can I order swing tags in another leather? Will you cut them like you do with the normal leather swing tags?
At the moment no, our swing tags are all printed on the same nappa leather. We may introduce more in the future, but for now this is the best choice. The swing tags are all cut the same way. You can order the leather of your choice and make the swing tags yourself, but we do not cut different leather into swing tag format.
How Would you Like the Edge?
We have two finishing options for your fabric order:
- As it comes. We cut around your image, leaving a simply scissor cut, perhaps uneven white fabric border.
- Cut on the line. We will cut neatly on the edge of your image. Please be aware, when we cut along the line, we have to cut against the grain of the material. This is the standard procedure for fabric cutting.
All of our fabrics are cut manually by hand, with the utmost care and attention. If your fabric has a slightly uneven look on the edges, or a touch of fraying, this does not indicate a flaw in the textile. It is not always possible to achieve a perfect straight cut with certain fabrics, so please do bear this in mind when it comes to your design. If you have any queries or would like to know about our cutting methods in more detail, please get in touch and we will be more than happy to discuss them with you.
Not suitable for children’s toys or pet products, due to risk of ink being forcefully removed and ingested.
