Our take on the Patent Cowhide Leather Side, Light Brown, 18-20 Sq Ft

A full side of patent-finished cowhide in light brown, sized 18 to 20 square feet. Patent leather has a high-gloss, mirror-like surface that resists water and wipes clean, but it shows scratches and creases more than matte hides. A side this size covers a small bag, a pair of boots, or several small leather goods. No current price was provided for this listing, so check the store page for the latest figure.

Questions and answers

What can I make from an 18-20 sq ft side?
Enough for a medium tote, a pair of ankle boots, or several wallets and card holders. Plan your cuts first, since patent hides show seams and creases.
Is patent leather good for bags?
Yes for structured bags that hold their shape. Avoid it for slouchy designs, because sharp folds can crack the coating.
How do I care for patent cowhide?
Wipe with a soft damp cloth and avoid alcohol or solvent cleaners. Store away from heat and direct sun to keep the finish from yellowing.
How does patent compare to regular finished leather?
Patent has a high-gloss coating that is more water-resistant but less breathable and more prone to visible scratches. Regular finished leather is easier to repair.
Is this one hide or several pieces?
It is a single side, so the 18-20 square feet come as one continuous piece. Expect natural variation in thickness and color across the hide.
