Leather helps to create quality shoes that last. The leathers we use in our products offer durability, flexibility, breathability and softness to create premium, quality footwear.
Our product specialists carefully select the correct leather, nubuck or suede to match the category and character of each shoe we make. It’s to ensure that the product looks great, feels comfortable, is fit for purpose and fits beautifully.

Hotter classics
Our eight Hotter classic leathers are the ones we use widely across our footwear collections for their quality and durability. Each has a special place in our leather portfolio, offering specific features and benefits relevant to the shoes or boots we make with them.
Hotter Softy Leather
Hotter Softy leather is exclusive to Hotter, being the widely used leather in our collection. It is tumbled to enhance its natural grain and sourced from only the finest imported hides.
It’s soft yet extremely durable with a premium, rich, quality feel. It has a natural full grain to enhance its appearance and offers a subtle two-tone look across certain colours, which beautifully enhances the look and feel to our casual women’s shoes. Due to the tanning process and the way we finish our leather, Hotter Softy leather is an ideal material for any type of weather, being durable in wet weather with water resistant properties.
