Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this genuine sheepskin leather or synthetic material?
A: This is 100% genuine first-layer sheepskin leather — real animal hide, not synthetic or PU leather. The first layer provides the strongest and most durable portion of the hide, giving your finished pieces a premium look and long-lasting quality.
Q: What projects is the 0.8–1mm thickness best suited for?
A: At 0.8–1mm, this sheepskin leather is ideal for flexible, lightweight applications such as shoe uppers, bag linings, wallets, card holders, garment accents, and decorative car interior panels. It is thin enough to fold and stitch neatly without bulk.
Q: Can I dye or paint over the taro purple frosted finish?
A: The frosted matte surface can accept leather dyes, paints, and finishes, though results may vary depending on the product used. We recommend testing on a small offcut before applying any colour treatment to the full piece.
Q: How should I care for and store this leather?
A: Store flat or rolled (avoid sharp creases) in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To maintain the frosted finish, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture. A light application of leather conditioner is recommended if the material is stored for extended periods before use.
