Description

Pigskin nubuck leather is buffed on the grain side rather than split, which is what separates it from an ordinary suede: it keeps the strength of the full skin and gains a short, velvety nap on top. Pig fibre is famously tough for its weight, so at 3 oz. (1.0-1.2 mm) this is a light leather that still takes a stitch line without tearing. Hides run 5-6 square feet, in eight colours including Cordova Red, Royal Blue, Vintage Violet and Rose Dawn.

Why Choose Pigskin Nubuck Leather

  • Buffed on the grain side, so it is stronger than a suede split of the same weight
  • Short velvet nap with a soft, dry hand rather than a fuzzy one
  • Pig fibre resists tearing and abrasion – the reason it has lined footwear for a century
  • Light 3 oz. substance that skives thin and sews on a domestic machine
  • Eight colours, several of them deep and unusual for a nubuck

Ordering

Pigskin nubuck leather is sold by the hide, and each one falls within the size range shown. Nubuck shows nap direction and takes marks from handling, so work with clean hands and lay all the panels of one project the same way round. Water spots a nubuck surface, so test any protector on an offcut first. For larger hides in the same leather see our Pigskin Nubuck 8-10 sq. ft., or browse our Pigskin and Suedes & Nubuck ranges. For swatches, current stock or volume pricing, email Info@Avetcoinc.com or call 818-890-6680.

Disclaimer: These leathers are free of PCP, Azo Pigments, Chrome VI, Formaldehyde, and APEO.
