JimRaynor Report post Posted October 8, 2015 I'm looking for a place to buy a large quantity of finished lather hides of various types - mainly for messenger bags, duffle bags. Where would you recommend I go in NJ? If they have inventory so I could browse/choose, that would be great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colt W Knight Report post Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) I gave up buying local, and I order everything from Hide House in Napa, CA now. They have good prices on leather, wide selection, sell to me wholesale, and don't gouge on shipping like almost all the online leather dealers.

JerseyFirefighter Report post Posted October 18, 2015 I have yet to make the trek to allentown, but I can say there are no leathercraft outlets. All of the leather supplier searches turn up premade leather items or leather care. I purchase all of my items online unfortunately. I wouldnt mind saving crazy shipping costs for just a shorter drive than PA or Manhattan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
