Members Jtsrunner22 Posted March 28, 2014 Members Report Posted March 28, 2014 Hello all. I'm relatively new to this forum, but so far have found it incredibly helpful. I'm currently on the market for camo leather in woodland (green/brown) and black/white color ways that I can use for making watch straps. I only have experience using vegtan and Horween Chromexcel, and don't know where to go for camo printed leather in the thick enough (5/6oz) for watch straps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Quote

I'll have to check that out. Only issue is that I need a black variation...kind of like an urban camo...as well. Appreciate the help! Quote
Matt T Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 I saw the tandy camo in the store the other day. It looks to be printed on split leather, not top grain... Quote
Members simontuntelder Posted April 3, 2014 Members Report Posted April 3, 2014 I've seen some here in Denmark. There's a slight pull up to it and it's very uneven in texture, as if the leather has been creased purposely. I think it's impossible to find any urban camo. So I would get some dye at get to work on some natural veg tan. If it's only watch straps it might be possible, as the surface is very small. Quote

Members nancy4143 Posted September 1, 2014 Members Report Posted September 1, 2014 I saw the shades of black, grey, white color in camo leather at Sav More leather two weeks ago. Sav More's info is: 1626 Wall St, Los Angeles, CA 90015(213) 749-3468 I am not sure whether the hides were shoulders, double shoulders or ? The leather looked to be 3-4 ounces but you can call them and find out. I visit this store in person but in all probability they will ship. Their prices are good-wholesale. If you do not have a resale No. they still give the wholesale price. I hope this helps. Nancy Quote
