Calf hair is leather made from the hide of a young calf with the natural hair left intact. Despite its name, it is not a textile fibre or animal hair, but a type of leather finish valued for its soft texture and distinctive appearance. It is commonly used for footwear, bags and accessories, often featuring natural patterns or printed designs.
