Description
Economy 4/5 oz veg tanned leather is a vegetable-tanned cowhide double shoulder from Mexico, 1.6-2.0 mm thick, with a semi-soft temper and a smooth grain that takes tooling, stamping and dye well. The double shoulder cut gives a long, even cutting area for straps, strips and small leather goods. Hides are sold individually, and each one falls within the size range you choose, from 9-10 up to 12-13 sq. ft. Available in Natural and Black. This is clearance stock at reduced prices, so quantities are limited.
As a natural product, may show small marks, scars or range marks; these are part of genuine leather and are usually easy to cut around.

- Double shoulder cut with a long, consistent cutting area for straps and strips
- The Natural darkens to a rich patina with use and takes dyes and finishes
