Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the size of the entire sheepskin hide?
A: The hide is supplied as a whole natural sheepskin, meaning the size and shape will vary slightly from piece to piece as it is a natural animal hide. Please expect natural variation in dimensions; this is characteristic of genuine leather and not a defect.
Q: Is this real or faux leather?
A: This is 100% genuine top-grain sheepskin leather — not faux, bonded, or synthetic leather. You get authentic natural leather with all the softness, flexibility, and durability that real sheepskin is known for.
Q: What thickness is best for handbag making?
A: At 0.8–1mm, this leather is an excellent choice for handbag panels, linings, shoe uppers, and lightweight accessories. It is supple enough to stitch by hand or machine yet sturdy enough to hold structure when combined with interfacing or lining materials.
Q: Can I cut and sew this leather by hand?
A: Yes! The 0.8–1mm thickness is well-suited to hand stitching and hand cutting with a sharp craft knife or leather shears. It is also compatible with most leather sewing machines.
