Springfield Leather Veg-Tan Remnant Bundle vs Weaver Leather Economy Veg-Tan Side
Buy the Weaver side if you need one consistent piece for a project with matching thickness and color across a whole bag, belt run or sheath. Buy the Springfield remnant bundle if you want variety to practice on, sample, or build small goods from scraps. The Weaver side is a single graded, evenly gauged side of imported cowhide; the Springfield bundle is assorted split pieces in mixed thicknesses from roughly 2–3 oz up to 7–8 oz, so consistency is the trade-off. Leatherworkers generally treat a graded side as the safer base for a finished piece and remnants as a cheap way to experiment.
- Choose the Springfield Leather Company Veg-Tan Leather Remnant Bundle if you want assorted pieces in mixed weights to practice carving, stamping and small projects without committing to one large side.
- Choose the Weaver Leather Supply Economy Veg-Tan Leather Side if you need a large, evenly gauged side for a project that must look uniform across every panel.
