The world of fashion is changing and very fleeting. There are many professions and companies linked to this professional field, from leather producers, such as Hosbo, to designers and creatives, who must always be up to date, ahead of each season and know how to evolve with the environment.

Innovation is part of our everyday life and is always present in everything we do. Our goal to improve and offer the maximum diversity and quality to our customers is a constant and daily work. That is why, every season, we look for inspiration in everything around us and we launch different proposals to the market. At Hosbo we always try to be true to our style, and we offer our most recognized and classic leathers every season, in addition to the new fantasy collections. In addition, we offer our customers the best qualities. One of the foundations of our philosophy as a brand.

“Pure” joins the big HOSBO family

This year, we wanted to add a new product to our big family of furs and we at Hosbo think you’re going to love it. We have called it “PURE” and as its name suggests, it is a natural looking, very soft to the touch, small grain leather with a color palette aligned with our proposals for fall / winter 2019-20. We will present this new incorporation in the fairs we visit during the summer, September and October months and we hope that it will be very well received and that you will like it as much as we do. We’ll keep you updated.

As you know, we are immersed in the new autumn/winter 2019-2020 collection. A show that will incorporate new features, of which we will keep you informed, and that will be more than ever based on the trends we present. With all this in progress, and fully involved in the work, we are waiting for the starting gun to be fired for the season of national and international fairs. During our particular tour, we have unavoidable dates that are repeated every year, some recent additions, such as New York and some totally new ones, such as London. This year, for the first time, the capital of the United Kingdom is waiting for us.

In recent years, London has been competing for the position as the undisputed successor to “Fashion Capital”, thanks to its Fash Tech. Acronym that describes the intersection of fashion and technology. And to such important issues as having the most prestigious fashion school in the world; Central Saint Martins. This makes it one of the cities with the largest pool of talent on the international scene. With all this in your favour, Lineapelle London, could not happen otherwise: A hotel with a modern and chic air; Ham Yar, located in the heart of the metropolis, a single day, July 10, prestigious European fur producers and a trendy atmosphere and at the forefront of new trends.

Hosbo’s team will be there to present the proposals for autumn/winter 2019/20 in the room “Room The Croc”, number 33, and to tell you everything that happened. London is just the beginning of a long list of international fairs that we will be walking through during these months. We leave you the calendar so that you don’t miss any details:

When you buy a leather product, such as shoes, it´s important to give them the care they deserve to increase their durability and that they do not suffer deformations over time or wear the color. From Hobos, and as experts in dealing with goatskin, we offer you a series of tips so that, when we acquire a leather shoe, it stays as the first day for much longer.

It´s important to pay attention to some easy tips. We must store our shoes properly. If they are going to remain in boxes for a long time, as when we make the change of season, they should go inside a cotton bag with their corresponding lasts to keep their shape. Do not abuse cleaning products that may be counterproductive. If our footwear requires creams, greases, brushes or chamois, it is important that they are of the best possible quality and that after application we remove the excess product. Failure to apply them correctly may damage the skin of the shoe. Finally, it is appropriate to use a shoehorn to avoid deformation and also to facilitate the fit.

Treatment on goat skins

Goat skins, such as the ones we have at Hosbo, are ideal for footwear and are also top quality, so it is important to give them the attention they deserve. Although a shoe with this type of material can last for years, if we take care of it it will have the shine and appearance of the first day. How do we take care of our leather shoes? If we apply any type of cream it is important that it is solid in texture and in the corresponding tone. Once the product has been chosen, we brush the shoe to remove any dust residue it may contain, then apply a small part of the bitumen and brush thoroughly to remove any excess product it may contain. Finally, we rub with a cotton cloth all the shoe to dry it completely and that the shoe is not damp.
