The packaging wasn’t good enough and it caused many wrinkles on the surface of the hide ((
Comment from BuyLeatherOnline the 13/06/2022
Thank you Yuliya for the feedback. We use this packaging for some reasons:to minimize shipping costs for the customers and because the material we use is made only of recycled materials without PVC, in fact it is eco-sustainable. Anyway we suggest you to iron the leather to avoid any wrinkles: just use an iron and a cloth to protect the skin. 😊

Very good qlity product, but 10-15 % cheaper, would be great for the buyer and seller, equally. But, it is just fine for me, anyway.

This leather has all the same characteristics of leather costing twice what it costs. I strongly recommend giving it a try!

Beautiful side. Absolutely gorgeous. I am rating 4 instead of 5 because it was significantly more stiff than I expected. I was unsure if it was veg tanned initially and had to re-check the item description. It's not going to be useful for the car shift boot I am going to make, but I'll find a use for it.
