Premium Lightweight Vegetable Tanned Leather:

Tanned using traditional vegetable tanning methods, these baby calfskin sides showcase a beautiful pale cream tone with all the character of natural, undyed leather. At 2oz (approx. 0.8mm), the leather is soft, pliable, and easy to shape, tool, and form—perfect for small goods, lining, watch straps, bookbinding, and fine leather accents.
