This water buffalo leather has a nice, firm feel that gives bags and other leathercrafting projects just the right body. Our team works closely with the tannery to transform these water buffalo hides into one of our best-selling leathers with the right combination of a quality chrome tannage and a buffed top grain.
- Moderately firm leather with a matte finish and smooth flesh side
- Buffed top grain diminishes small imperfections
- Chrome tanned water buffalo leather side offers a good yield at a great value
At Weaver Leathercraft, we work closely with our tanneries to ensure our water buffalo hides are tanned with the same level of care as our cow hides. This water buffalo leather’s chrome tannage yields consistent color and grade and offers excellent value compared to veg tan leather. Chrome tanning takes about one to three days as opposed to the one-to-three-month veg tanning process, making it an economical choice for crafters.
