Correct leather for beverage holsters?

Recommended Posts

To date, my products have been finely finished gun holsters and custom belts. Always, I have used Hermann Oak veg tanned in various weights. But  I've been asked about crafting beverage and hot sauce  holsters for social gatherings, and don't see the need for high dollar HO leather in this style project. Also, I don't want to use veg tanned because I believe there are better materials for these products.They won't be rough cut holsters, but won't be finished to the level of my gun holsters.  I've never had a need to choose pre-dyed leather that's meant for usual wet conditions (can and bottle condensation), so I need advise please on what leather to choose. Oil tanned? Chrome tanned? I prefer 6-7 ounce leather. I'll be sewing the holsters, with perhaps a copper rivet at some points.

Thanks. Don.
