Double Shoulder, Torres, 2.2-2.4 mm Yellow brown per pcs.

120,64 €

Torres is a beautiful and distinctive leather made from vegetable-tanned cowhide with a unique surface texture.

The leather features a pronounced, irregular pattern resembling natural cracks and fissures. The combination of light and dark shades creates beautiful contrasts and gives the surface lively colour variations with a raw and rustic appearance.

The double shoulders are not trimmed along the edges and therefore have a more irregular shape than traditional double shoulders. This is because the leather pieces also include part of the belly, which is normally trimmed off. The irregular shape can make it slightly more difficult to make full use of the leather.

Double Shoulders

A Double Shoulder is fairly even in thickness, but the surface can be slightly uneven, as the natural wrinkles around the neck cannot be completely smoothed out during tanning. These natural variations give the leather a beautiful, lively look.

Double Shoulders are a good and affordable choice and come in many different thicknesses, colours and qualities. This makes them suitable for a wide range of leatherwork projects.

What can a Double Shoulder be used for?

A Double Shoulder is a versatile cut that can be used for many different types of leatherwork. Depending on the thickness and quality, it is suitable for bags, wallets, cases, straps, smaller accessories and much more. The natural wrinkles in the leather can also give the finished project a beautiful, lively look.

Always check the properties and recommended uses of each product, as the different leather qualities can vary considerably.

Which thickness of leather should I choose?

Double Shoulders are available in thicknesses from 1 to 4.5 mm and can be used for bags, belts, straps, wallets, home accessories and much more.

As a general guide:
1.0–1.2 mm: Suitable for smaller projects, inside pockets, etc.
1.4–1.6 mm: Ideal for wallets, bags and wet forming
2.0–2.2 mm: Ideal for bags, straps and home accessories
2.6–2.8 mm: Suitable for larger bags, belts and straps
3.0–3.5 mm: Suitable for large bags, heavy-duty belts and straps
3.5–4.5 mm: Suitable for heavy-duty dog leads, straps and harnesses

The right thickness depends on both the function of your project and the look you want to achieve. A large bag can easily be made from thinner leather, just as a smaller bag can be made from thicker leather.

On each product page, you can find the thickness of the leather along with examples of what it can be used for.

What does vegetable-tanned mean?

Vegetable-tanned leather is tanned using vegetable tanning agents derived from plants and trees. This tanning process produces firm leather that is well suited to traditional leatherworking techniques.

Depending on the quality, vegetable-tanned leather can be dyed, tooled and wet formed. Over time and with use, many types of vegetable-tanned leather will also develop a beautiful, natural patina.
