jvdborre Report post Posted December 12, 2011 Hello fellow leatherworkers, I'm recently gaining interest in making watch straps, exotic leathers in particular. However, I'm doubting about the kind of leather to use as lining. Anyone has experience in making these and want to share some views? many thanks Joris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blazin Report post Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) I would think you could use some upholstery type leather. I usually go to the scrap bin at Tandy for this type of item. Beware however although it says 5-7 dollars a pound it adds up quickly. For that matter you could probably find a nice piece fairly cheap on ebay.

I got myself some nice kidskin as lining.. I'm considering some pigskin as well for later works Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
