Members natenaaron Posted September 22, 2015 Members Report Posted September 22, 2015 Living in the middle of no where my access to different leathers is nonexistent. The closest tandy to me is 5+ hours away and is not very helpful. While this site is full of good information there are a lot of leather names tossed around like folks know exactly what is being talked about. Among the more experienced this is not an issue. Among the unknowing it causes confusion. A physical description is nothing compared to hands on experience. So I am offering something that has helped me out immensely. A place called Tannery Row is the retail arm of Horween. While they are not the quickest to respond they are helpful and nice. They offer a sample of each of their leathers. These are small squares that helped put a lot of what I was reading about Horween leather into perspective. Once I get some practice I will definitely be putting these samples to work. I have not found this option for Hermann Oak but it is my guess it is available from somewhere. Quote
