Alright, I've certainly heard enough about SLC that I'm no longer considering buying leather from them. I am, however, considering this Goliger Leather in Ventura. From what reading I've done about them, it does in fact sound like the Hermann Oak they sell is graded to the same quality levels as what you'd get when ordering directly from the tannery. Their A Grade HO Tooling is charged by the square foot, ranging from $12.10 for 2/3 oz to $12.50 for 10/11 oz. This will average out to around $300 a side for the 9/10 oz I need, the same as Maverick's new price per side of HO B Grade. Has anybody else had any experience ordering from Goliger?

Top notch.  Did have to return a side once, they took it back.  Usually I really like what they send, it is what I ask for.

Cheryl is the MAN (sorta) ... Never had a side I wasnt' more than happy with, even after paying shipping to IA.

IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.

It's the only place I buy from anymore. Cheryl's a hoot!

Still not cheap though.

I am going to have to find a way to buy HO. Which I think looks the best.  In this picture you can see the major difference in how two different leathers will turn out. Top half is W&C regular tooling panels. Bottom is HO. Even my wife said there is a noticeable difference. These are tooled and finished the exact same way. No resist just antique over raw leather. Last picture is W&C Vachetta but used Wyosheen over dye for resist then antiqued.

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.
