Description

Iguana is a double shoulder cowhide with a rugged, worn-in look built into the leather. It is vegetable tanned, aniline dyed so the natural grain stays visible, then waxed, which gives it a slightly greasy hand and a pull-up effect: bend or stretch the leather and the color lightens along the fold, then settles back. Double shoulders run 9-12 square feet at 3/4 oz. (1.2-1.6 mm) in Black and Pine Cone.

Why Choose Double Shoulder Cowhide

  • The shoulder is the firmest, tightest-grained part of the hide – little stretch, ideal for belts and straps
  • Waxy pull-up finish that lightens where it folds and gives an immediate vintage character
  • Aniline dyed with no pigment coat, so the grain, growth lines and marks all read through
  • Vegetable tanned, so it burnishes, takes edge finish and ages rather than staying flat
  • Semi-flexible 3/4 oz. weight: enough body for structure, still workable by hand

Best Uses for Double Shoulder Cowhide

  • Belts, straps, dog collars and harness parts
  • Boot and shoe uppers, western goods and vintage-look footwear
  • Bags, totes, satchels and luggage
  • Wallets, sheaths, journal covers and small goods
  • Craft and DIY projects where character matters more than uniformity

The Leather

Ordering

Double shoulder cowhide is sold by the piece, and each one falls within the size range you choose. The pull-up means the surface lightens wherever it is creased or stretched – that is the finish working, not damage, and it settles with handling or gentle warmth. Because there is no pigment coat, shade and marks vary from piece to piece, so order all of one color together when a project has to match.
