TheLeatherGuy.Org Sent Me a PACKAGE - and I MADE a Wallet With It!

⇢ This video contains free product that was sent to me to review and discuss with you guys.

A little while back I was contacted by the folks over at www.theleatherguy.org to see if I might be interested in trying out some of their leather for free on upcoming projects. They sent the leather shown in this video free of charge to check out and talk about with you guys.

► LEATHER SUPPLIERS

Wickett & Craig - I typically order their "Tooling/Holster/Carving" vegetable tanned leather. I purchase their "Standard" grade, and I request that they split it down from a thicker hide so the back is as clean as possible. I normally order 7-8 ounce for holsters, 3-4 ounce if I'm lining a holster (I build the whole thing out of 3-4 ounce), and either 3-4 or 4-5 ounce for wallets, journal covers, etc... They will allow you to purchase individual hides

Herman Oak - While I love the leather I've gotten from Wickett & Craig, I prefer the warmer coloring of natural Herman Oak. Unfortunately, H.O. requires you to buy leather in bulk from the tannery, and buying from distributors can be hit & miss. Springfield Leather sells "Herman Oak Premium Belt Bend", so I’ve been using this lately.

The Leather Guy - I don't have a lot of experience with this leather, but the "Artisan's Choice" leather I've used has been very nice. The coloration is similar to Wickett & Craig. The thing I really like about The Leather Guy's website is that nearly every single hide shown on their site is a listing for the actual hide you'll be buying, complete with photos and a description of blemishes for that particular hide. Very cool that they do that!

District Leather - I've never personally ordered from them, but I've heard good things about their leather.

Acadia Leather - I've never purchased from here either, but I've also heard good things about their leather.

Horween Leather - At the risk of sounding repetitive, here's another I've never ordered from, but their leather is very well known.

Weaver Leathercraft - Most of what I order from weaver is buckles and tools, but they also sell leather.
