Benefits of Veg Tan From Montana Leather Company
Our veg tan leather offers several advantages:
- Natural tannins: The tanning process uses only natural tannins from tree bark and leaves, which are less toxic than chrome- or chemical-based processes that can cause reactions in sensitive people. Plus, veg-tanned leather is easier on wildlife and the planet.
- Extensive product range: We carry a large selection to meet your needs, from sizable veg-tanned hides to smaller scraps and precuts. Regardless of your project, we can supply excellent-quality material.
- Quality assurance: Our team is tough on quality, and we carefully inspect each piece to help ensure it meets or exceeds your expectations.
- Legendary service: Our history of exceptional customer service dates to 1908 and is still our priority today.
Considerations for Crafting With Veg Tan Leather
Veg-tanned leather is pliable and durable, which makes it ideal for many tooling leather projects. Comparing factors like the following can help you make the right choice and get the best results:
- Thickness: Consider thicker leather for projects requiring high durability, and thinner gauges are best for goods that see gentle use.
- Texture: A smooth finish works well for detailed projects, while a natural one offers a rustic look and appeal.
- Color: Veg tan’s natural color is perfect, but you can also customize it with dyes or select pre-dyed options for convenience.
- Flexibility: Firmer leather is best for structured items, and buttery soft leather is perfect for more flexible goods.
- Quality: Leather naturally has imperfections, which makes it unique, but inspect the piece for flaws that could impact your project’s function or appearance, and look for clean backs.
- Size: Match the leather size to the project scale to prevent waste and get the most out of your material.

Care Tips for Veg Tan Leather
Taking good care of your handcrafted treasure can help it last for years, and the following tips will help:
- Avoid excess exposure to water, and treat your project with a waterproof or water-repellant protectant to withstand accidents and frequent use.
- Use a natural bristle brush or soft cloth and leather cleaner and conditioner, such as saddle soap, when necessary.
- Keep leather supple with natural conditioning oils or moisturizers.
- Store goods and unused leather in a cool, dry place — keep firm-tempered leather flat and other tempers rolled with the grain facing outward to prevent the grain from getting a “loose” look.
