Wickett & Craig Leather Grades:

Wickett & Craig leather is available in several grades to suit different leatherworking needs and budgets. 

• Standard Grade (Grade 1) offers the cleanest overall appearance, with minimal natural marks and imperfections, making it an excellent choice for premium leather goods where appearance is important. 
• Utility Grade (Grade 2) may contain more natural characteristics such as scars, wrinkles, brands, or other cosmetic imperfections, but still provides the same quality vegetable-tanned leather and is a great value for projects where maximum usable yield is less critical. 
• Special Grade (Grade 3) typically features more noticeable natural markings or surface imperfections and is ideal for smaller projects, practice work, prototypes, or leatherworkers looking for quality Wickett & Craig leather at a more economical price. Because leather is a natural material, markings and usable area will vary from hide to hide. Recommended Size is 2 to 4 square feet.

Available in 2–3 oz, 4–5 oz, and 6–7 oz, this harness leather is ready to handle everything from sleek wallets to rugged belts and tack.
