Leather material

Longride uses 3 main materials for all their produced bags:

1. GENUINE LEATHER
2. IPAREX SYNTHETIC LEATHER
3. 840D-NYLON with PVC coating

1. Genuine Leathers

Chrome tanned leather, extremely strong and special wax treated to resist most of the weather conditions. Inside of the leather is blocked so that water can't penetrate easily. This leather is very compact and tanned to keep his shape and stiffness. The used north-east European cow hides, have a natural thickness and grease and guarantee a long lifetime of our bags. A regular waxing of the leather will keep the your bags in top condition.
# HCL en CUS bags are made of genuine leathers

2. IPAREX

Iparex is a specially, exclusive for the Longride saddlebags and toolbags, developed synthetic 3 layers leather-look material.
#1 Textile inner layer for strength,
#2 Foamed pvc middle layer to give the material body
#3 Finishing top layer, to protect the synthetic leather against all weather conditions and a ultimate leather look.
This makes this synthetic leather bags almost maintenance free. Because Iparex is 100% water resistance, you do not have to wax the bags.
