Members bobthedrake Posted November 17, 2016 Members Report Posted November 17, 2016 If I'm making leather bracelets or something like a watch strap, is the type of leather a concern? I was wondering if chrome-tanned leather was alright for such use, or if the prolonged skin contact (and possibly sweat) might lead to sensitivity or toxicity issues. The alternative is veg-tanned, but my understanding is that's a lot stiffer than chrome tanned stuff. Quote
