What kind of leather for prolonged skin contact.

Recommended Posts

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.
