ADDITIONAL DETAILS

 

"Hydro Repel" Vegetable Tanned Leather is a special article that has been developed with a proprietary process to add waterproofing characteristics to not only the grain (top) side but to the entire crust of leather. Meaning overtime even as the grain patinas and is used through its life it will maintain its waterproofing effects.

 

This veg tan leather is full grain and their top selection. The leather has a nice supple feel with a small amount of firmness. This leather has a beautiful smooth dyed finish and smooth grain. 

The veg tan will have an amazing patina as it ages. The leather is dyed completely through and has a nice soft flesh side. It has a great feel in the hand and is also easy to cut and skive.

    LEATHER SPLITTING

    • Leather splitting is a custom service available down to your preferred thickness
    • Please note split leather can't be returned
    • There is a tolerance to leather splitting. While we have invested a lot of time and training into hitting a tighter tolerance range than advertised, sometimes the  leather articles and differing densities require the full tolerance range. 
    • Leather tolerance is denoted by +/- which means the leather can be both above and below that number by the denoted amount.
      • Example 1.2mm +/- 0.1mm.
      • This means that the leather could come anywhere ranging from 1.1-1.3mm across the hide. Most the time this amount is indiscernible to the naked eye, but should be noted if measuring with precise equipment
    • How we gauge the leather is with a thickness gauge that can reach both the edges and middle of the hide. We apply a moderate amount of pressure (Not too hard and not too soft)
    • Again our tolerances are tighter than the tanneries. We are usually well inside the range, especially on panels, but occasionally need the full range. Tolerance ranges are as follows: 
      • Splitting Panels: +/- (0.1mm).
      • Splitting Full Hides & Half Hides:  +/- 0.15mm
      • No Splitting (From Tannery Splitter):  +/- 0.2mm
    • The width of our splitter is 30 inches. If you have a hide that is larger we will trim the hide to fit and return you both pieces. We cut off the belly section leaving you the nicest area of the hide in tact.
    • Due to it requiring often multiple passes we do not send the split flesh part.
