More About This Product:

This leather has that classic bridle look with just the right amount of body. The chestnut tone is warm and consistent, and it takes a burnish like glass. It glues down clean, cuts with ease, and finishes out great whether you're working by hand or on a machine.

We’ve used this stuff in belts, lined wallets, and small goods for years and it never disappoints. If you’re after leather that’s already finished and ready to roll, this is one you’ll want to keep stocked.
