Modad2010 Report post Posted January 4, 2015 As of yesterday, HO at Springfield Leather went up about $ 0.80 a sq. ft. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Studio-N Report post Posted January 4, 2015 I'm sure prices at the evil empire will go up much more than HO or Wicket. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chiefjason Report post Posted January 4, 2015 I was told with my last order that my supplier was going up. Not HO, so might be safe to expect it all to bump up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLSleather Report post Posted January 4, 2015 A little perspective... Leather going up by 80¢ / ft means that your standard size holster has an increased cost of $1 (assuming a 15-20% waste factor), a 2-layer belt goes up $1.50, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
