Burgundy Latigo Leather

Vegetable tanned leather that comes in 2 different widths: 11-12 oz or 4,5 mm thick and 6-7 oz or 2,8mm thick. These argentinian hides average around 22 square feet, thus, not as big as their american counterparts. Anyways, the lower price and equal tanning quality provide a higher value per dollar.

The latigo is classically used for straps due to its high resistance.

The 1st or first quality side is carefully chosen firstly at the raw material stage and later its re-classified once the product is ready to ship. In this way we ensure ourselves of the quality of the product and that only the best sides are available for our customers.

The flesh side is buffed 

The memory of our leather for tooling purposes has been something that customers have really valued over these years.

The pit tanning used has been developed at the tannery over 20 years ago and has since been praised in the saddle making industry for achieving the quality of north american tanneries. 

These hides are chosen from the south of Argentina where the weather is colder and the animals achieve this thickness throughout their lives.
