Before you order
Swatches are final sale and intended for color and texture review only — not resale or production use.
Color accuracy has a 3-month window. Leather is a natural material and our inventory turns regularly. A swatch from a new lot may differ slightly from one received months earlier — same article, different dye batch.
Lot variation is normal. Each production run of leather is dyed and finished independently. Minor differences in shade, hand, and texture between lots are a natural characteristic of genuine leather — not a defect. We recommend ordering your full quantity from a single lot whenever possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our leather, ordering, shipping, swatches, returns, and more.

Start with what you're making. Our project guides recommend specific leathers for sofas, dining chairs, car and truck interiors, boats, aircraft, motorcycles, bags, shoes, belts, wallets and jewelry, fringe and repairs. If you're between two leathers, order swatches and compare them in hand.

Yes. We offer two swatch options so you can evaluate a leather's color, texture, weight, and finish before purchasing a full hide.

Individual Leather Swatches — $4.99 per swatch Choose the specific colors and leather articles you want to evaluate directly from our swatch page. Each swatch is cut from our current stock, giving you an accurate representation of the leather you would receive.

Upholstery Leather Swatch Ring Our complete ring includes samples of our whole-hide, upholstery-grade leathers. Each swatch has a QR code that links directly to the corresponding product, making it easy to review and reorder. It is ideal for interior designers, upholstery shops, automotive shops, and businesses that work with leather regularly.

Both options help you make confident decisions before purchasing full hides.

Leather is a natural material, and hides carry markings from the animal's life: scars, insect bites, wrinkles, brands and grain variation. They're part of genuine leather, not defects. Full-grain and natural leathers show more of them because they keep the hide's original surface; corrected-grain and more heavily finished leathers show fewer.

It depends on the leather, the size of the hide and its natural markings. The neck, belly and edges can be looser or thinner, so plan your pattern around them and allow for some waste. Our calculator gives typical square footage for common projects.

Because leather is a natural material and each hide is unique, we encourage you to order swatches before purchasing full hides.

Returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery for leather that is unused, uncut and in its original packaging. A 20% restocking fee applies ($10 minimum). It covers our original shipping and the prepaid return label we send you.

Scrap, swatches, clearance, sale items and custom projects are final sale.

Contact us before returning and we'll send your label. Read the full return policy

No. You can buy one pre-cut sheet, one hide or a full production run. For larger quantities, ask about volume pricing.
