Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this genuine sheepskin leather or synthetic?
A: Yes — this is 100% genuine sheepskin leather, specifically the first layer (top grain) of the hide. It is not bonded, PU, or synthetic leather. You receive an authentic whole sheepskin with natural variations in shape and texture.
Q: What thickness and projects is 1.2mm sheepskin best suited for?
A: At 1.2mm, this first layer sheepskin is an excellent all-round thickness for handbags, purses, shoe uppers, wallets, and lightweight garment panels. It is thin enough to fold and stitch cleanly, yet sturdy enough to hold structure in finished goods.
Q: Can I cut, dye, or tool this leather at home?
A: Absolutely. The embossed chamois-grain surface accepts leather dyes, edge paints, and adhesives well. It can be cut with sharp craft scissors or a rotary cutter, stitched by hand or machine, and worked with standard leathercraft tools for DIY projects.
Q: How is the hide sold — by piece or by square metre?
A: This listing is sold as a whole sheepskin hide. Because each hide is a natural product, exact dimensions will vary slightly from piece to piece, but you receive the full natural shape of one sheepskin.
