cordwainerbec Report post Posted November 12, 2022 Hello everyone, new member here I'm on the hunt for some lovely dyed-through veg tan leather. I make dog accessories and bags too, so I need something fairly thick. does anyone have their go-to shop for veg tan? it seems to be trickier than I thought it would be.. unless im searching in the wrong area of the internet! TIA pic for attention.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HaloJones Report post Posted November 12, 2022 Jt bachelors in London would be my go to, however they don’t have a website with stock listings so you would need to go in person, from my last visit I recall dyed veg tan in green, black and red, May have been other colours All in various thickness and they have a splitter on site Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomE Report post Posted November 13, 2022 If you fancy black or shades of brown, bridle leather has a nice finish and a smooth pasted back (moss-back). It is veg tanned leather stuffed with fats and waxes. Sedgwick bridle leather seems to be a favorite in the UK. Available from Abbey England and other shops.

Matt S Report post Posted November 13, 2022 Lovely looking bag Bec! Online, in no particular order, I use J Woods, AA Crack, Le Prevo and Abbey. If you use Facebook look for the Leatherworkers UK group. Lots of resource lists and you will get a lot of UK-based users' experience -- especially useful if you're looking for something specific. Other than "veg tan" (which is a very wide church) and dyed what qualities are you looking for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
