This is a single-shoulder cut of vegetable-tanned cowhide in a natural finish, averaging 6 to 8 square feet. It comes in six thicknesses from about 0.4 mm to 3.6 mm, so one cut can serve thin linings or stiff, heavy straps. It is smaller and cheaper than a double shoulder or full side, which suits small projects and makers who don't need a large panel. Buyers rate it well, and the main trade-off is that pieces carry brands, insect marks and scars.

Buyers rate it 4.3 out of 5 and generally find it a solid, workable veg-tanned hide for small projects. The noted downside is cosmetic: brands, scars and insect marks on some pieces.
These single shoulders are veg tanned leather in a natural color. They are smaller and more economical than a double shoulder or a full side, so they suit projects that don't need that much leather.
The hides accept dye and stain well. They can also be wet to mold easily.
Some hides may have brands, insect marks and scars.
