Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this genuine sheepskin leather or synthetic?
A: This is 100% genuine first-layer sheepskin leather — the premium outer cut of the hide. It is not PU, bonded, or synthetic leather. You get a real, natural grain surface with all the characteristics of authentic animal hide.
Q: What thickness is best for bag linings versus shoe uppers?
A: The 0.7mm end of the range is typically preferred for soft bag linings and delicate interior work, while the 1mm thickness provides more structure and is well-suited for shoe uppers, wallet bodies, or panels that need a firmer hand.
Q: Can I dye or finish this leather further?
A: Yes. First-layer sheepskin leather accepts leather dyes, edge finishes, and topcoats well. We recommend testing on a small off-cut first to confirm colour adhesion with your chosen product.
Q: How is the leather sold — by piece, half hide, or full hide?
A: This listing is for whole sheepskin hides. Natural hide sizes will vary slightly due to the organic nature of the material. Contact us before ordering if you need a specific minimum usable area.
