Which Type Of Leather To Use?!

Recommended Posts

I've been looking into making ladies tote bags (Like this: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/175056863/brown-leather-tote-bag-distressed-brown and this: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/194927661/brown-leather-tote-bag-distressed-brown?ref=related-4 ) and for the life of me I can't find any information online on what kind of thicknesses these bags usually are. Would anybody be able to enlighten me? I assumed 1.5-2mm but before making a leather order I thought it'd be best to ask the experts (you)!

Much Appreciated!

Know this is an old thread. but I think the reason for no reply is that there is no 'right' answer. Everything depends on so many different factors, design, taste, target groups etc. Also most people here want to see some effort meaning that - do first, ask later. So make a few bags, try different leathers, thicknesses and find what YOU like and prefer and if you run in to some difficulties that you can't solve, well then there are plenty of people here on this forum that will help you. Good luck.
