What thickness is this leather?

It is 4-5 oz, roughly 1.6-2 mm thick. That weight is firm enough for bag panels and wallet exteriors.

How much leather does one side give me?

Each side is 27-29 sq ft. That is enough for several bags or a large batch of wallets and small accessories.

Is it good for handbags?

Yes. The semi-stiff temper holds shape, which suits structured handbags and purses. It is less suited to soft, slouchy styles.

Will the hide have marks on it?

Genuine leather can show natural scars, bug bites and scratches. The pebbled surface hides some of them, but expect variation across the side.

Is it full-grain leather?

It is a chrome-tanned fashion cowhide, not described as full grain. Treat it as a mid-grade hide for accessories rather than heirloom leather goods.

Can I use it for garments?

It is firm for clothing. It works better for bags, wallets and structured accessories than for jackets or soft apparel.

Our take on the Pebbled Cream Cowhide Leather Side, 4-5 oz, 27-29 Sq Ft

A single chrome-tanned cowhide side in pebbled cream, 4-5 oz (about 1.6-2 mm) thick and 27-29 sq ft. The semi-stiff temper holds shape well, which suits structured handbags, wallets and small accessories. It is a fashion hide rather than a premium full-grain leather, so expect natural scars, bug bites and scratches. Against softer garment-weight hides it is firmer and less drapey, and against full-grain leathers it is more uniform in surface but less durable in the long run.
