While classified as Special Grade, this leather undergoes the same meticulous vegetable tanning process that has made Wickett & Craig a household name among serious leatherworkers. The economy designation simply indicates minor cosmetic variations that don't affect the leather's structural integrity or working properties.

Each hide features the characteristic "pull-up" effect that defines quality bridle leather, responds beautifully to tooling and stamping, and burnishes to a remarkable finish. The distinctive chestnut color provides a sophisticated alternative to traditional brown leathers, offering versatility across both traditional and contemporary designs.
