Leather

The leather used to make this item is 2 x 3-4 Oz (1.2 mm – 1.6mm) full grain vegetable tanned Leather Strips made from the skin of cows.
Full-grain leather refers to hides that have not been sanded, buffed, or snuffed (as opposed to top-grain or corrected leather) to remove imperfections (or natural marks) on the surface of the hide. The grain remains which contains the fibre, strength and durability. The grain also has breathability, resulting in less moisture from prolonged contact. Rather than wearing out, it will develop a patina during its lifetime.
Vegetable-tanned leather is tanned using tannins and other ingredients found in different vegetable matter, such as tree bark prepared in bark mills, wood, leaves, fruits and roots and other similar sources. This tanning process is the most eco friendly and has been used to make leather for thousands of years. The leather created is supple and cream to brown in colour, with the exact shade depending on the mix of chemicals and the colour of the skin. It is the only form of leather suitable for use in leather carving or stamping.
Leather thickness is usually measured in ounces. One ounce equals 1/64″ (0.4 mm) in thickness. Thus, a weight of 7 to 8 oz. means the leather is 7/64″ (2.8 mm) to 8/64″ (3.2 mm) in thickness or approximately 1/8″ thick. The thickness of leather varies to some extent throughout the hide. This is why leathers are usually shown with a range of thickness such as 4 to 5 oz., or 6 to 7 oz. As a comparison, a quarter (coin) is equal to a 4 oz. thickness.A standard thickness for belts is a 7 to 8 oz leather.
