Choosing Leather For Your Projects

- Choosing leather for your projects has always been the most important question that we get in our shop and why that specific leather.
In this video, we made an easily digestible leather guideline when you find yourself in a situation where the leathers are just not 'leathering' and you need some guidance. As a beginner, the question of 'what leather to use?' is one of the most difficult decisions when starting a leather piece. Whether big or small, we will go over the basics on choosing the correct type of leather!
Additionally, we've included a basic guideline on how to make your pieces resistant to the elements and help extend the life of your items.
We can't wait to see what you'll make!

Best video yet! I could watch Dom and Shane show and describe leather all day!
You're too kind! What else do you want to learn?!
@@lonsdaleleather Edge finishing for different leathers! Maintenance! Different stitching techniques!

We're just gonna gloss over the fact that he carries an anvil in that bag...
On a good day.
Great infos, I've been searching info about waterproof leather for boots/footwear and this video comes up.
Serendipity strikes again! Thanks for watching!
Not only great information, but you made it fun as well. I would rather see a more uncut honestly produced video like this than a heavily edited sterile video free of even the smallest of mistakes. Great stuff, keep the great content coming our way.
With great respect... Joe

Comment. ...... did i win yet? I love your veg tan. The "oddysee veg tan" is great too. Also the heritage is alright for "chem tanned leather" , since its also veg tanned. I made a phone holster with the whiskey one yesterday. Holds its shape fine. Cheers from Montreal.
@tedblackburn8679 You got a couple more weeks until you're announced the winner (maybe)! It's awesome that it's a combo! It's easier to burnish and bevel than chrome, which is awesome. So glad you like it! Tag us on Instagram if you post a photo of the finished product! We'd love to see it 🤩
This is definitely a good video for people starting leatherwork
Much appreciated! Hopefully you found it informational!
Well done video. Very helpful information. Great breakdown of the leathers you sell so I can make better decisions if I buy online from you!
Much appreciated! Anything to make it easier to choose leather for our customers! (or potential new customers 😉)
This really helped decide which of your Leathers to use for what project for a person that hasn't used or even has seen them all yet. Thanks L.L. and let us know when the out of stock Heritage leathers come in like 2-3oz whiskey and black!
Glad you found it helpful! We'll be posting more photo styles on the website so you can see how it bends, etc.
Will definitely let you know about the Heritage on IG! There are also a new leather similar to the Heritage that just dropped that is 100% veg tan leather called the Odyssey. Stoked for this leather!
When in doubt use shell scraps 😊
You want some, we got some!
@@lonsdaleleather Stocked up a little while ago from you guys :), such an awesome way to get your hands on the coveted horween shell! Still brainstorming ideas for its use 🤓
This is really helpful because there are so many options…
It's literally like being in a candy store
So helpful!! Informative and entertaining 😊

Searching for Italian leather that smells like inside of a ferrari, bentley or a high end luxury car. My goal is all about the luxurious smell the leather gives off. Want to use it to make my home and car smell like inside a ferrari or a leather shop. Someday to make my furniture out of that one piece of outstanding italian leather. Thanks!!!
We know exactly what you mean! The italian leather and all the leather we have, in fact, definitely gives you that sense of luxury from just its smell alone. You'll have a luxury smelling car/house in no time!
I have noticed that the change pouch in the modern mens wallet seems to have gone the path of the dinosaur- I am often asked to make a wallet with this option so do you sell templates with this pouch included?
Interesting! What did you mean by the "path of the dinosaur"? Chunky and pebbled 😬?
@@lonsdaleleather No- thin & boney- but I noticed you didn't answer my question- Templates??
@@Aikidobear129 thin and boney, now I understand. Unfortunately we don't have any templates yet but there are talks
Very interesting! Thanks!
Much appreciated!
So,uh.. what kind of leather do i use for a hotdog eating mask? 🤔 asking for a friend.
Depends if it's a medical mask type or a mask like a luchador. Either way, I would say the Plonge leather or the No. 5
Geezus, you sound like you are talking to a bunch of 7 year olds.
For some audiences that are just starting in leatherwork, it can be a bit overwhelming so we try to make it easy to digest. Thanks for the feedback :)
