Looking for a specialty leather: soft & not stretchy

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a leather with very special characteristics.

- Soft as chamois

-Anywhere from 5 to 9 oz. thickness

-Doesn't stretch

-Light cream or natural light color

 

I was able to obtain this leather from Promise Land Tannery, but it's not available anymore. They advertised it as Latigo.

 

Does anyone know where I can get such a leather? Many of us are looking for it, but we can't find it.

I have some of what you are describing, and I purchased it from Maverick Leather some years ago. A Horween latigo, it is so soft and beautiful it almost made me cry. Because latigo is a combination tanned leather (veg-tan / chrome-tan) its suppleness can vary widely, so if you contact them you should do it by phone to make sure what they have matches what you are looking for.
