The supercar material, in your hand.
Alcantara® lines the steering wheels, racing seats and private-jet cabins of the world's finest machines. We took that exact material, secured an official licence, and made it something you carry every single day.
What is Alcantara®?
Alcantara® is an Italian-engineered microfibre material, developed and woven in Italy to a standard the automotive world treats as the benchmark. You will find it on the steering wheels and racing seats of supercars, and lining the cabins of private jets, precisely because nothing else feels quite like it.
It is suede-soft to the touch, warm rather than cold, and grippy in a way that makes everything it covers feel more secure and more considered. It is the detail you notice the moment your hand lands on it.
The company behind the material.
Alcantara® is a registered trademark of <b>Alcantara S.p.A.</b>, an Italian company headquartered in Milan, with its production based in Nera Montoro, in the Umbria region of Italy. The material has been engineered and woven there since the 1970s.
It is made to exacting standards, and the company has been a certified carbon-neutral business for over a decade. When we say genuine Italian Alcantara®, we mean exactly this material, from this source.
Why it feels different.
Leather goes cold and slippery. Silicone feels cheap. Plastic feels like nothing at all. Alcantara® holds warmth, grips gently against your fingers, and gives back a soft, tactile surface that turns a phone into something you actually want to hold.
- Officially licensed, genuine Alcantara® from Italy
- Suede-soft grip that improves with use
- Stain-resistant and simple to refresh
- Vegan and carbon-neutral, with no animal skin

| Senza materiali animali | Sì, vegano | No | Sì |
| Origin | Made in Italy | Varia | Varies |
