  1. Jacob –

    I am very pleased and content with Montana Leather’s customer service and quality. I ordered an 8 and 12oz 3×1 sqr. ft. Tooling Leather pieces and received them within 5 days of my purchase (I paid lowest shipping cost). The pieces are cut from their Hermann Oak Midgrade leather, but I wouldn’t have guessed that as their is only one minor flaw on both pieces; I only lost about 0.1 sqr. ft. of leather total. The pieces are almost perfect rectangles with nice straight edges on all four sides (one piece is curvy on one side, which is expected as cows aren’t shaped like rectangles, however, they generously measured a 3×1 rectangle and left the curvy end on it which gave me some extra leather). Both pieces are very uniform in thickness, varying by less than 1/32″. I will absolutely buy more leather from here in the future.

    Great piece of leather. This is my first order and I have learned to be careful what I ask for. I ordered a 11-12 piece of leather and boy is it thick. It looks great and is very soft and I am looking forward to working with it.

    Beautiful piece of leather for a good price and the piece was a few inches bigger than described. So, 5-stars.

  8. Mark Johnson (verified owner) –

    Was totally elated with my last purchase. Superior, top quality, # 1 product. I was actually surprised that the sheet of leather I received was so good. I used it on my crafts projects ( two 18” American Native Medicine Shields ) the left overs I’ll use to make chokers, wrist bands, etc…
    Keep up the good work guys. I ordered another sheet yesterday. Very happy with my purchase. The photo is of a unfinished shield, but the hard part is done. FYI : the leather was thick, but actually easy to cut.
    Once you know the trick. 🤣

    This is some of the most consistent leather I have ever worked with, and although you can expect extremely minor blemishes, its perfect for any project you have in mind. I make holsters for a side business, and my customers are always satisfied and impressed at the quality of the leather. Thank you for your quality products Montana Leather!

    Absolute terrific piece of leather. Only problem I had was that I ordered 6-7oz and received 7-8oz but I can live with that since the overall 3 ft sq of Hermann Oak was great and 100% useable. I have never been disappointed with any leather I have purchased through Montana Leather.

Q & A

Ask a question
Would these leather pieces be a suitable material to cut insoles from? Ian Rudie asked on January 21, 2023

Hey Ian! You certainly can cut from these to make insoles. Typically though, insoles are cut from sole bends that are a bit stiffer that typical veg tan leather like Hermann Oak. We have sole bends on the website here as well, just do a search for them and they'll pop up.

Can you tell me what part of the animal this would be cut from? Gabriel asked on November 26, 2022

Hey Gabriel! These are cut from Hermann Oak veg tan leather sides, from the back down to the belly. Horizontally, the pieces can come from anywhere from the butt to the shoulder.
