A Continuous Lean: Inside Horween Leather by Eugene Kan

Aside from his role at A Continous Lean, Michael Williams’ agency work at Paul + Williams led him to the Horween Leather factory in Chicago. Documenting the production process for cordovan leather which would eventually make its way into the Wolverine 1000 Miles 721 LTD Boots, a series of photos are now being shared by A Continuous Lean. As one of the few remaining leather factories in the United States, Horween has become a hot commodity as brands look to maintain a certain level of authenticity and support with American-made goods.
