Members Chaed Posted June 25, 2012 Members Report Posted June 25, 2012 Hi guys, I'm in the planning of making my first saddle and now I am searching for the best place to buy skirting leather. I'm looking for 10-12oz. or 11-13oz. since it should be a light trail saddle. I know that my best bet is probably HO or WC, but where exactly to buy them from? Right from the tanneries? Redistributors? Where can I get away with the best price/quality? Alternatively, perhaps even more preferable: To all european leatherworkers, where do you get your leathers from? (US wouldn't be a problem, since I'm travelling there in August and could take it home with me that way, but only this time. For the future, Europe would be preferable.) Thanks a bunch, Anne Quote
