Huh?

I wish! I haven't found any USA suppliers that are selling them for less than I sell the entire belt for. If I had higher-end items, I'd have a market for them but currently, it's a tough sell to do a $57 belt with a $40 or $50 buckle.

We help our fiends and parents (this is Mike, Steve’s son)

Cool hopefully I can get enough people on board or find a supplier who can do lower MOQ

@AtlantisLeather I hope you find someone, If we didn't already have a backup skiver and the drive we'd have taken it all. Everyone else here, these folks are legit, we've known them for many years...I'll vouch for this being an amazing deal.

Hi Folks, I'm still in early talks but I'm working with a factory to try to get some buckles made in solid copper. Currently they seem like something you can't find from the big suppliers at wholesale pricing. I'm working to get 1.5" wide but also possibly 1.25". I'm trying to get both a roller and centerbar but the roller will have a 500pc minimum to do solid copper. I'm thinking landed we will be somewhere between $8-$10 These are the two styles I'm currently looking at. The roller is two-tone at them moment but they can do soild copper if we get 500.

No idea, these were purchased from another big maker who may have gone direct to Italy.

Thanks! 22" L x 13" D x 12" H more or less.

I wasn't alive in '74...my apologies.

Top left is Amber Harness with no pockets, the rest have one open pocket and zipper on the opposite side. Front left is a very CXL-like leather from B Tannery in the DR. On top of that is Horween Cherry Cavalier avd front right is Canoe Caviler. In back are a Deep brown and Bourbon “Glove affair” from Siedel. Bottom and in the other pictures is Horween Rookery in Black, a great feeling Veg-Tan

Ahhh...the same era as "rich corinthian leather"

Those are the most funny...like saying "genuine fake wood" why would you even bother?

Yeah books are one of the categories where "genuine" is very unlikely to be a positive. Furniture is another

Nah! He’s referring to a bit of misinformation that got posted and was wisely removed Springfield know their stuff.

You should have taken a picture for Instagram... I'd love to have something to show the people who say "full grain " is the same as "full thickness" smh...

I’ll just add extra pictures as comments on my own post and they get merged anyway.

Unfortunately I don't know too many suppliers that would ship to you...I do sell leather (that's excess to me) but I'm primarily a manufacturer t. I know D'annonay makes nice calf leather (I get scrap from Alden of New England). Your straps look very nice...since you're talking smaller quantities hopefully someone can point to you a few European suppliers that can work with you to find something that will work.

Hey quick question: where are you located? What's easily available to you especially in smaller quantities will vary incredibly based on location.

Adding that if any one is scared off by "pink" it's actually a pretty neutral "nude" color.

Yeah I hate how much tighter shipping overseas has gotten. You would be looking at more for freight than for the leather.

Hi Folks I picked up a couple lots of leather recently and got a bunch of "Double leathers" in the Adria Dollaro Tannage from Mastrotto. These are interesting because they've been finished in such a way that the suede side is a contrasting color to the front. They're used in some "fashion bags" for a unique effect. They also make the need for lining or finishing the suede side of the leather unnecessary. Here's more info on the leather and the full tech specs one the "regular" (not double) version of the leather. https://www.gruppomastrottousa.com/collections/adria-express/ https://www.mastrotto.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Adria-_scheda-tecnica_2022.pdf Most of the color Combos include one side as "Blush Pink" Hit me with any questions. I have decent quantity of many of these. It seems like the blush is usually the flesh side on these. Blush pink with grey Blush with Cognac Black with Blush Olive with Blush White with Blush Burgundy and Blush White with beige

Doesn't look good bro. Google search sends it back here to another listing. So unless they bought it in June and are reselling or are the same person, it seems very suspicious.

Email it to me. I’ll google search it for you. nstarleather@shtc.net Not everyone can take gambles but it can work out. I speak as someone who bought 20,000 feet of leather sight unseen last week.

@ramrod forgot to ask did you google image search the picture?

My gut says it’s legit. Too random of items to be scamming…especially clicker and mallet dies. I’ve got loads of old dies and unless you have a complete pattern and it’s something you want to make, they have very little value. Like if I were gonna scam a leather worker for $500, I’d say I’ve got a higher Desirable leather at a rock bottom price…as well as other more desirable/common machines/tools. To me the list seems too random to be a scam…
