The Hide House (located in, of all places, Napa) carries 2-3 oz. black English kip leather in their inventory, plus they do international shipping. https://hidehouse.com/products/index.html?Product_ID=776 Quote

Members Michael222 Posted August 27, 2019 Author Members Report Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Cool.I'm looking for quality leather like in the next link https://buyleatheronline.com/en/nappa-leather/7-black-nappa-leather.html?search_query=NAPA&results=3 But it's way too expensive so I'm looking for skin like this but cheaper.

Members Michael222 Posted August 27, 2019 Author Members Report Posted August 27, 2019 I bought the wallet so I had a demo of how to sew it, and I also needed a wallet, and it arrived today. the skin looks quality and about 0.6mm thick. I am attaching picture of the wallet I received. Quote
