The Leather Thread

[Dan_Bo]

They won’t care on the brand - call them before u go though cos I know once leather is torn it’s difficult - either stitch back together (can see stitches) or replace the panel with new leather piece - but this hard as almost impossible to get a new piece that matches your jacket

Thanks!!!!

Hi I'm ameteur leather crafter. Been using some veg and chrome tan leather from aliexpress. Quite satisfied with my creations thus far. But I was wondering where can I get better quality leather, particularly veg tan leather. The ones on aliexpress quality is okok, there's a layer plasticky material that's preventing a patina from forming. Not sure it'll be different for quality leather. Pls advice! Thank you

Can try ASOS.com - they might have real leather option and price quite affordable

Ivan Leather is 'expensive'. For the same products, you get a better price on Taobao and Aliexpress. Taobao and Aliexpress have the package kit too. It's cheaper to just buy stuff that you need individually to make a kit. They don't have a moq. I have bought a few items from them via airmail before.

Most of Ivan Leather's stuff are from China. Same supplier as found on Taobao and Aliexpress.

Thanks!!!!!
