Veg Tan Leather Scraps 1 lb Bag vs Natural Veg Tan Baby Calfskin Sides 2oz

Buy the baby calfskin sides if you need thin, smooth leather for fine work like watch straps, linings, bookbinding or small goods, and you want a large continuous piece. Buy the 1 lb scrap bag if you want a cheap way to try veg tan, practice tooling, or make small items like keychains and patches. The calfskin is softer, thinner and cleaner-grained; the scrap bag is thicker, irregular and built for practice and small cut pieces. Reviewers rate the scrap bag highly, but it is a grab bag, so expect marks and odd shapes.

• Choose the Veg Tan Leather Scraps bag if you want an affordable mix of thicker full grain pieces for tooling practice, small goods and repairs.
• Choose the Natural Veg Tan Baby Calfskin Sides if you need thin, smooth, soft leather in large continuous pieces for fine detail work and linings.
