Avetco Economy is a vegetable-tanned cowhide double shoulder from Mexico, cut at 4/5 oz (about 1.6–2.0 mm) with a semi-soft temper. The smooth grain takes tooling, stamping, dye and finishes, and the double shoulder shape gives a long, even area for cutting straps and strips. It suits beginners and budget-minded makers who want real veg-tan for belts, straps, holsters and small goods. Against premium Hermann Oak or Wickett & Craig shoulders it is cheaper stock with more variation in temper and surface, and the natural hide darkens to a patina with use.

This is a vegetable-tanned cowhide double shoulder from Mexico. It is 4/5 oz (1.6-2.0 mm) thick and has a semi-soft temper. That makes it firm enough to hold an impression and flexible enough to fold and stitch.
The grain is smooth and takes tooling, stamping and dye well. The double shoulder cut gives a long, even cutting area for straps and strips. The natural leather darkens to a rich patina with use and also takes dyes and finishes.
