Thank you so much. This is exactly the type of information I needed. I greatly appreciate it. I will update as I work on it. I don't have a ton of free time so this will be a multi month project.

I am in need of advice and guidance. I am a physical Therapist. I have a leather harness that is intended for spinal traction and unloading treatment as a form of manual therapy. The company that made them is longer available and I am interested in trying to make my own as a personal project for learning a new skill set but also contributing something to my practice that I made myself. I am able to determine if it would be safe for use and frankly it would only be used for myself. I have the actual product already but would like advice on what type of materials I would get in terms of the type of leather for the hip pads as well as the straps. From what I have read, it seems like the saddle leather would be good for the hip pads and perhaps either harness or bridle leather for the straps. The straps are also lined with a polyester webbing straps that is designed for high load capacity( 300lbs ** way above what I would need). This is a website with a few pictures of it. https://www.freddykaltenborn.com/books-tools/morgan-lumbar-traction-harness/ Any thoughts?
