Let customers speak for us
I highly recommend this product. I loved the texture and overall feel of the leather—it was easy to work with and handled beautifully throughout the process. The stain absorbed evenly and took exceptionally well, resulting in a rich, finished look. I truly enjoyed working with this material and will absolutely be purchasing it again in the future.
Very nice hides that take dye nicely and tool ok. The Neatsfoot jar lid was cracked, so it was a good thing that you had it in a plastic wrap. That was a mess.
Smooth but rough. Delicate but strong. A perfect hide for a perfect worker.
Very satisfied with these hides. Strong, nice grain, flesh side is nice, and lots of usable leather on the hides. I have made falconry hoods, glasses cases, bags and purses with the leather. They take dye very nicely.
Shipped quickly, nice hides! Will purchase again for next project, thanks Cerritos!
Due to it's thinness and flexibility, some of the hide was used to create Piping that could be easily made to conform to a curved surface. I 've been judicially conserving the remainder of the hide for making little baby shoes for our first grand child.
The goat leather is so soft and easy to work with. It works very well for masks. I do wish it came in higher oz weight but still great for light leather projects.
What is goatskin?
Goatskin is a natural leather made from the hides of goats. With a thickness of 2-3 oz, goatskin is the most durable leather available pound for pound. It has a unique balance of strength, softness, and flexibility.
Goat leather holds up beautifully over time, resists cracking, and responds well to shaping, making it perfect for projects like wallets, jackets, bookbinding, bags, linings, accessories, and more. It also takes dye and tooling well, especially when vegetable-tanned like ours.
Stronger. Softer.
