OUR LEATHER OFFCUTS
In addition to our range of whole skins and leather bundles, we consistently maintain a stock of genuine leather offcuts. Our offcuts are sourced from luxury brands' manufacturing leftovers, with a significant amount of them coming from the historical tanneries of the Tuscan leather district in Italy, which we regularly visit to source our materials.
We stock a wide range of options in terms of size and thickness. These offcuts usually range from 0.8mm to 3mm and can vary from small to extra-large sizes (about an A3 area).
If you are looking for larger pieces but want to avoid committing to a whole hide, you can browse our stock of leather bundles.
WHY BUY LEATHER OFFCUTS?
There are several reasons why to buy leather offcuts can be advantageous:
Sustainability: utilising leather scraps helps reduce waste and promotes sustainability. By repurposing these remnants, we minimise the environmental impact of disposing of unused leather materials.
Cost-effectiveness: leather offcuts are often available at a lower cost compared to whole leather hides. This affordability allows you to access high-quality leather materials without breaking the bank.
Versatility: leather scraps come in various sizes and shapes, making them versatile for different applications. They can be used for multiple purposes, making them ideal for repairs and small craft projects such as watch straps, luggage tags, wristbands, patchwork pieces, clothing, wallets, bags, key rings, purses, jewellery, bookmarks and many more creative projects.
Creativity and uniqueness: working with leather offcuts encourages creativity and allows for the creation of unique pieces. The irregular shapes and sizes of the offcuts can inspire innovative designs and provide a distinct character to any project.
Practice and experimentation: leather offcuts are excellent for practice or experimentation, especially for individuals learning leatherworking techniques. They offer an opportunity to hone skills and test new designs.
Overall, using leather scraps is a sustainable, cost-effective, and versatile choice that promotes creativity and promotes a circular economy model, where waste materials are repurposed instead of being disposed of.
