Camera leather covers for Leica M
If you want to personalize your camera, you can do this with colorful leather covering. Manufacturers such as Leica and Hasselblad have always offered some cameras in different leather finishes and colors as special models.

But subsequent leather covering is also possible, so Leica offers a large selection of colored full-grain leather for replacement for the current Leica M, Leica Q, Leica CL.
More often, however, there is a desire for new leather covering on classic cameras whose optics have suffered from wear or even damage. In classic Leica cameras, the coating made of so-called vulcanite has often become brittle and brittle over a long period of time.
Wherever possible and sensible, individual elements can no longer be preserved due to age and wear and tear and must be replaced. Camera leather in particular often shows signs of wear and tear, including damage and flaking. It usually makes sense to replace the camera leather in whole or in part.
