Needing This Type Of Leather Or Something Close

[bluecarpenter]

I'm looking for a certain type of leather that was designed specifically for Hydraulic engineering to create oil seals under great pressure and heat. Or at least that is how it was described to me.

It needs to be soft and flexible. I'm using it in some shoes that I'm making for the foot bed. 10 -12 oz. when you walk on it after a little while your foot will begin to form its own foot print in it.

I like it better than using foam as an insole. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks mark

are there different ways they finish latigo? I know if have a little bit of it but its not very plyable. a bit stiff. Who do I contact and what do I ask for?
