They have golden and cream colors in different sizes. Do they have a website for the leather side of things? All I can find is hydraulics, etc. Quote

I wonder how that compares to this item from a local supplier, Glacier Wear. 1/4" vs 7/8", so a big difference there. But a quarter of the price per square foot. I can't imagine it making a difference for things like holster lining, but then I've never had a lined holster.

Members Hildebrand Posted October 14, 2024 Members Report Posted October 14, 2024 I bought a yard of the Tandy artificial sheep skin, I haven't gotten to use it yet but it seems like it will work well and the nice part is, its a nice rectangle shape so there should be minimal waste. Quote
