- Does Seidel run sales?
- Seidel discounts mostly through overstock and closeout listings rather than scheduled seasonal sales. The overstock hides on this page are the usual place to look for a lower price per square foot.
- Where is Seidel leather cheapest?
- Overstock and side listings carry the lowest price per square foot, since they are priced to move. Full-price Hermann Oak sides cost more but let you pick the exact weight and temper.
- What is Seidel best known for?
- Hermann Oak veg-tan leather, sold in named weights like 7-8oz for holsters and belts and 2-2.5oz for linings and small goods. Makers buy from Seidel for consistent US-tanned hides and clear weight grading.
- What does the weight number mean on a Seidel hide?
- Leather weight is ounces per square foot, so 7-8oz is roughly 2.8-3.2mm thick and 2-2.5oz is about 0.8-1mm. Heavier weights suit belts and holsters; lighter ones suit linings, wallets and bags.
- What is Seidel's return policy?
- Seidel generally accepts returns on uncut, unmarked leather within a set window, but cut hides and closeouts are often final sale. Confirm the terms for the specific hide before ordering.
