About Pirarucu Fish Leather - Glossy Black
Our Pirarucu leather is the finest available on the market today. Sourced from the Arapaima, a massive freshwater fish indigenous to the Amazon basin, and then tanned using ancient tanning techniques unique to Pirarucu leather, the result is a glossy black, textured, yet natural-feeling leather that's perfect for distinctive luxury boots, handbags, wallets, belts, and other luxury accessories.
Distinguished by its bold, scale pattern and striking natural texture, this exotic chrome-tanned leather offers an exceptional balance of light weight, texture, and strength. It has a naturally flexible hand while maintaining impressive durability, making it ideal for high-end goods and statement accessories. Collected as a regulated byproduct of local fishing practices, Pirarucu leather is a responsible and sustainable option for those seeking distinctive exotic materials.
Please Note
Leather is a natural product. We strive to keep new lots within size, color, and quality tolerance, but some hides may have slight variations in size or color, or have natural imperfections such as scars or small holes.
Hide sizes may vary. Leather square footage isn’t measured as a true length-by-width area — it’s based on the hide’s surface area before finishing or shrinkage. Tanneries calculate footage from the raw hide stage and stamp the size on the flesh (back) side of the hide. We use the measurements provided by the tannery, but some variation in actual size is normal.
