The Unrivaled Peccary Leather Glove, A Japanese Craftsmanship Exclusive
The CACAZAN PCR-070 represents the absolute pinnacle of driving glove luxury and material rarity, being the only driving glove in Japan crafted from genuine Chaco Peccary leather.

Sourced exclusively from CITES-certified tanneries in Peru, peccary leather is revered for its unparalleled combination of softness, durability, and unique fibrous texture.

This glove offers a transformative sensory experience, with an unlined option providing a supreme “second skin” feel that bonds with the driver’s hand, and a lined version available for those prioritizing color retention. More than an accessory, the PCR-070 is a statement of connoisseurship, celebrating the wild character of its material and the masterful skill required to work with one of the world’s most challenging and prestigious leathers.

Product Highlights

👑 The Rarity of Genuine Peccary Leather
The PCR-070 is distinguished by its use of genuine Chaco Peccary leather, a material so rare and highly regulated (CITES Appendix I) that its supply is extremely limited. Sourced from the only CITES-certified provider in Peru, this leather is celebrated for its complex, interwoven fiber structure, which delivers exceptional softness, natural stretch, and remarkable strength—qualities unattainable with common deerskin or cowhide.

🖐️ Ultimate Sensory Experience: The Unlined vs. Lined Choice
The glove presents a profound choice that defines its character:

• Unlined Version: Offers the purest peccary experience. The leather’s unique fibrous texture contacts the skin directly, creating an unparalleled sense of oneness, breathability, and tactile sensitivity that the craftsmen describe as the pinnacle of comfort. This version best showcases the material’s natural “handshake.”

• Lined Version (Bemberg Cupra): Incorporates Asahi Kasei Bemberg Cupra lining to mitigate potential color transfer from sweat and provide a more traditional gloving feel. This option prioritizes color stability and a consistent interior climate.

🌿 Embracing the Wild: Natural Character as a Feature
Peccary leather is a testament to nature’s untamed beauty. Each hide bears the authentic marks of its origin—small scars, pore variations, and natural grain irregularities. CACAZAN does not conceal these traits but highlights them as intrinsic proof of the material’s authenticity, rarity, and unique story. This embrace of natural character extends to slight sizing variations due to the leather’s stretch, with each glove individually measured and crafted.

⚒️ A Craftsman’s Challenge: Working with a Legendary Material
Peccary is notoriously difficult to work with; its dense, interlocking fibers challenge even master craftsmen during cutting and sewing. The creation of the PCR-070 represents the pinnacle of Japanese leatherworking skill, demonstrating CACAZAN’s capability to tame and perfect one of the glove-making world’s most coveted yet demanding materials.

Philosophy & Ownership Understanding

Goal: To offer the driving world’s ultimate material luxury—a glove made from peerless peccary leather—presented with complete transparency about its unique properties and care requirements, and crafted with the reverence such a material demands.

Focus: Showcasing the irreplaceable tactile and visual qualities of peccary; providing a choice between pure sensation (unlined) and practical consideration (lined); honoring the natural, wild essence of the leather; and achieving a feat of craftsmanship by consistently working with this challenging hide.

Critical Considerations & Informed Ownership

⚠️ Essential Ownership Understanding (Not Defects):

• Color Transfer Potential (Unlined): The vegetable-tanned dyes may transfer slightly to skin with perspiration. This is a natural characteristic of the leather’s porosity and depth of color.

• Natural Markings: Scratches, pore clusters, and grain variations are inherent to wild peccary hides and are celebrated as marks of authenticity.

• Sizing Nuance: Due to the leather’s natural stretch, exact fit may have slight variances. Each piece is individually tailored to account for this.

• A Choice of Experience: Selecting between unlined and lined fundamentally changes the glove’s character—prioritize either ultimate feel or color stability.

🎯 For the Discerning Connoisseur:

• Unrivaled Material Prestige: Own a piece crafted from one of the most exclusive leathers in the world.

• Transformative Tactile Sensation: Experience a softness, warmth, and direct connection no other glove can replicate.

• A Story in Your Hands: Each mark and texture tells the story of the animal and the artisan’s skill in working with it.

• Ultimate Craftsmanship Showcase: Represents the highest level of the glove-maker’s art.
