Handcrafted at the Tärnsjö tannery in Sweden, this handsome leather keychain clips onto your belt by way of a smart matte black brass button stud. A sturdy sprung hook holds your keyrings and other paraphernalia, and the burnished leather strap is embossed with the Crud antler logo. And this one's not just for your keys either. If you invest in a pair of Crud's fantastically rugged leather gloves, you'll notice they've got little brass eyelets at the cuff, so you can clip them onto your keychain and they'll always be at your hip when you need them
Sustainability through Longevity - Everything Crud creates represents a commitment to simplicity, functionality, high quality, and craftsmanship. Their gear will take a real beating and with time develop a patina and character specific to each individual product and its owner.
Based out of Jonsered, near Gothenburg, Crud’s motto is ‘let the gear tell your story’. They’re all about creating enduring products that’ll take on their own inimitable patina the more you use them. If you’re the type who loves the look of faded selvedge denim, ancient waxed jackets or beaten-up old Land Rovers, then these guys are your tribe.
Crud are best known for their rugged leather gloves, constructed in premium cow hide or elk skin. Each pair is stitched together in either the US or Ethiopia, then hand-finished in Sweden – going through an eight-stage process that utilises a traditional mix of pine-scented waxes, oils and fats. The resulting gloves are water-resistant and incredibly tough, designed to rack up the scars, scrapes and burns of countless adventures in the great outdoors. There are winter versions available, and even a pair that’s lined with Kevlar for the ultimate in abrasion and heat resistance.
Crud aren’t interested in mass-production and economies of scale. This is heirloom-quality stuff to last a lifetime – built to take a battering and come out the other side looking even better.
