Vegetable tanned natural bellies: Vachetta leather (not oiled)
Vegetable tanned leather bellies require different processing than other leather parts (single or double butt, front shoulder, etc.) because they have a different shape, different top grain and a different thickness. Consequently, bellies are cut before tanning process and immersed in the drums separately. Generally leather bellies have a surface area ranging from 0.5 to 1 square meter, a length from 2 to 2.50 meters and an average width of 40 cm.
Thanks to these features, bellies are very well suitable to production of sandals and leather goods in general. Sometimes they can also be used to achieve belts or objects that require very long lengths, although thickness (1-2 mm on average, 3 mm max) can not be compared to other types of thicker leather (single or double butt, front shoulders). Finally, like any other vegetable tanned leather, they are perfect for tooling. Bellies also have a vegetable-tanned natural color and a medium temper. This leather, like all our products, is carefully selected (first grades) and comes only from the best Italian suppliers.

Nice quality useful for larger pieces

Nice. Ordered one at 5oz thickness and one at 6oz thickness. Came completely different colors and temper. The 6oz belly was harder and darker in color. I liked both so I am not complaining. I can use both for different projects.

It's supposed to be 'Best quality-1st Grade', but instead, there are several spots where the top layer leather treatment is peeling off. That cannot be considered 1st Grade Quality, in my opinion.
Comment from BuyLeatherOnline the 05/05/2022
