Andrew Chee Report post Posted September 11, 2013 What's the thicknesses you have in the shells? Andrew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bisonmade Report post Posted September 11, 2013 These are Color #8 which is the standard/classic Maroon cordovan color. The thickness is around 4oz. Best Regards, Sebastian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Chee Report post Posted September 11, 2013 Greystone, just FYI, there is no "cut" for shell cordovan. They are all the same cut. They are ovals cut from the buttcheeks of a horse. The grades refer to to the usable size of the shells. Andrew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greystone Report post Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) Thanks for clarification of terms .. BUTT,,, does "The grades refer to to the usable size of the shells." if grade 2 does that translate to 2 sq ft Sorry for the Q's better asked than not happy with the end results Again thanks David Edited September 11, 2013 by Greystone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Chee Report post Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) No, grades do not work like that. Horween has a strange grading system for their shells: Grade #1: 2.75 SF Grade X: 2.25 SF Grade #2: 1.75 SF Grade #3: 1.50 SF Grade #4: 1.25 SF Grade #5: 1.00 SF Chips: 1 SF and under They do not sell their shells by the square feet. The larger the shells, the more expensive they are (when calculated by square footage). I guess it makes sense since the larger shells are more rare then the smaller ones.
