Veg-Tan Saddle Skirting Side vs Sienna Milled Veg-Tan Side
These are two veg-tan sides built for different jobs, not two versions of the same product. The Veg-Tan Saddle Skirting is heavy, unsplit stock at 10 to 17 oz., meant for saddle trees, straps and anything that carries load; saddle makers use it for tooling, embossing and molding. The Sienna Milled is a thin 3 to 4 oz. side with a pebbled grain and little stretch when dry, aimed at wallets, watch bands and small bags. Buy the skirting for structure and the Sienna for small goods; neither replaces the other.
- Choose the Veg-Tan Saddle Skirting Side if you are building saddles, heavy straps, belts or holsters and need thick, unsplit leather that holds tooling and takes a mold.
- Choose the Sienna Milled Veg-Tan Side if you are making wallets, watch bands, small bags or linings and want a thin, evenly textured side that stays firm when dry.
