Members Normow Posted June 7, 2010 Members Report Posted June 7, 2010 I'm looking for some fairly heavy (7-8 oz) chap leather, waxy, dark, dark burgundy. Need double butts, two. Norm stillwatertackshop.com Quote
Members Normow Posted June 13, 2010 Author Members Report Posted June 13, 2010 OK, a little lighter weight, (5-6 0z) but still dark, not glossy burgundy, 48-50 sq ft. Need two. Anybody got any ideas? OR, big sides, maybe 30+ sq ft? Quote

Members Normow Posted June 13, 2010 Author Members Report Posted June 13, 2010 Who have you contacted already? Are they out of stock or something? Johanna No, it's kind of an unusual request. Chap leather is usually sold by the side, 20-25 sq ft. I need bigger pieces. The waxy finish is a special request of the customer. There's lots of upholstery leather, but usually with a glossy finish. I have talked to Siegel of California, where I get most of my leather. Weaver- no go. Oregon Leather, apparently no. I'm hoping a shotgun approach might be noticed by a supplier who can help. Thanks for replying. Quote
