This is a full-grain, undyed vegetable-tanned hide from high-altitude European cattle, sold as a double shoulder with the bellies trimmed off. The 3.5 oz (1.4 mm) weight sits in the middle range: firm enough to hold shape for tooling, stamping and wet molding, thin enough to skive and fold for wallets, pouches and small bags. It is naked and ready to dye, and it darkens into a patina with use. Against chrome-tanned or pre-finished sides it demands more finishing work, but it takes dye and tooling far better. Buyers describe clean grain, few blemishes and a soft flesh side.

Buyers describe clean, blemish-free leather with a beautiful grain side that dyes easily to a smooth, supple finish. The soft flesh side and easy cutting and skiving come up often.
This is a full grain, natural vegetable tanned leather hide cut from high alpine European cowhides. Animals raised at higher altitudes tend to have fewer defects, since there are fewer bugs. The hides are tanned by a European partner from top grades 1 and 2, though some neck wrinkles can be present.
The hide is a double shoulder cut with no bellies, which gives a high cutting yield. It is naked, undyed aniline-grain leather with a smooth, soft flesh side that is easy to cut and skive. Firmness is medium.
The leather is used for dyeing, tooling, stamping and wet molding. It develops a patina as it ages.
