Morellato Derain Black Handmade Smooth Calfskin Strap

Handmade by skilled artisans at Morellato in Italy, the Derain Black Watch Strap is made from the finest Italian calf leather. Using only the best vegetable-tanned hides, the Derain strap demonstrates the highest levels of craftsmanship.

Derain Black Strap: Understated Styling

The Derain Strap is understated with a rustic design focused around durability and comfort. Firstly, crafted from soft calf leather, it has hand stitched edges. In a natural, light brown shade, the stitching provides a subtle contrast to the black leather of the strap. Also, overstitching at the buckle and at both ends of the strap is a quality detail. Otherwise, the strap is essentially plain. The Derain strap features rounded padding and a half-remborded (turned) edge to enhance water resistance. The leather is smooth with a pleasingly tactile, low shine finish.

Additionally, the Derain strap features two loops to keep the tip of the strap securely in place. Finally, a soft, nubuck lining offers maximum comfort.

Choose between a silver or gold-tone thumb-shaped polished stainless steel buckle, both featuring a sleek, modern profile.

The Derain strap is also available in Brown and Tan.

About Morellato

Morellato was the very first manufacturer of watch straps in Europe. The company was founded in Venice in 1930 by Giulio Morellato.

Born into a family of artisans specialised in the production of footwear and watches, Morellato was able to convey his great passion in creating watch straps, drawing on his family tradition and expertise.

Today’s Morellato collection is the result of the determination and intelligence of three generations of entrepreneurs.
