The Major Report post Posted November 10, 2008 My preference is veg tan goat. The best veg tan goat I have found thus far is from Seigels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johanna Report post Posted November 10, 2008 I second the goat reccommendation, but I would opt for cabretta (which is finished, not veggie tanned) because I am allergic to "raw" veggie tanned and it would give me hives. So would some suedes, after I sweated a little under the band. Johanna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

craftsman827 Report post Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) S-T Leather has some nice goat at a good price. I purchased some not long ago, & was very satisfied. It's tooling goat at bottom left of page . # L3926 Edited November 11, 2008 by craftsman827 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
