.URUKUST CLASSIC LEATHER 1.6mm / OAK

These are .URUKUST standard leather sheets that are perfect for making leathercraft. They are vegetable-tanned cowhide and moderately firm with some wrinkles and creases. The leather hides are 1.6mm thick, easy to handle when making a wide range of products from small items to big bags. The flesh side has been treated to get rid of the fluff.

These are the same leather sheets introduced in .URUKUST's "手縫いで作る上質な革小物" (Direct translation: "Hand-made and high-quality leathercraft").

CAUTION

Because leather is a natural product, it contains inherent flaws such as scars or uneven color. When the product is left out in the open, sunlight or room light may fade the surface color. If water is applied, it may cause discoloration or stains, and it may bleed on your clothes.

Due to computer monitors displaying colors differently, we cannot guarantee that the color you see accurately portrays the true color of the product. Please understand the actual color may vary slightly from what appears on your screen.

- .URUKUST CLASSIC LEATHER -
This leather is tanned using vegetable tannins, a method rarely used in Japan. .URUKUST original leather is produced after extensive discussions with tanners. Japanese raw hides are used, giving it the perfect elasticity and smoothness. Treated with light oils, it is lightweight yet gives off an elegant luster with use.
