Pon un cuero en tu diver
Hace poco descubrí el blog de José María, un jerezano que hace correas artesanales de piel, el trato fue muy amable, las medidas de la correa totalmente personalizadas y distintas opciones de pieles, colores de pespuntes y muchos detalles más.
En unos días la tuve en las manos, la sensación no podía ser mejor, un trabajo de primera categoría, me quedé impresionado por la calidez y la flexibilidad de la correa.
En la muñeca la definiría con una sola palabra, comodidad.
Estéticamente es 100% vintage, entre el color del hilo y la textura de la piel parece que tenga 60 años,
José María tambien le da unos toques aquí y allá que aumentan la sensación.
Y por último os diré que la relación calidad-precio es imbatible, dejaros llevar por la moda americana de los divers "en cueros"
