places to buy leather in mexico

Recommended Posts

My wife and I are headed for the the southern tip of Baja Mexico to spend the winter, and volunteer at a place down there rescuing sea turtle.  I plan to take my leather working supplies with me and continue honing my skills.  Does anyone know of a place in Mexico to purchase veg tanned leather.  We are driving down, and plan to travel/ explore while we are down there, both the Baja and mainland Mexico, so location isn't the most important part.

Most of the tanneries in Mexico seem to be around a place called Leon..Guanajuato

There used to be a good leather shop in the artists quarter in Tijuana. I have not been there in over ten years so do not know if it is still there. I always walked over, and coming back US Customs was very interested in the rolled leather. I several times had to unroll for inspection.
