Les Cuirs Desrochers

Overview

Vegetable-tanned leather at Les Cuirs Desrochers

Les Cuirs Desrochers lists fourteen products in its natural vegetable-tanned category. That gives makers a Canadian source where they can compare several natural veg-tan options instead of judging the shop by a single tooling hide.[1]

The available weights and hide sizes vary quite a bit. One A-grade listing covers 2 to 9 oz leather on 13–16-square-foot hides. A separate 8–9 oz natural leather listing has area choices from 20.5 to 25.75 square feet and describes the leather as suitable for tooling.[2][3]

Shipping coverage
United States

The A-grade hide can be added directly to the cart in sizes listed at 13–16 square feet, with thickness choices from 2 through 9 oz. Pick the weight for the job at hand; the rest of the category does not necessarily follow the same specifications.[2]

The heavier natural leather is sold in selectable area bands from 20.5 to 25.75 square feet. Check the live listing for the area, thickness, unit price, grade, and stock before ordering, since those details belong to that specific product.[3]

The product pages allow direct ordering and do not state that a trade account is required. The checkout test also continued as a guest, so individual makers can order without following a business-account path.[2][3][4]

Service details

Treat the catalog as hide ordering, not verified preparation service.

The site documents the leather selection, size and thickness options, and direct ordering. It does not document splitting, skiving, or strap cutting. If a project needs any of that prep work, ask before ordering instead of assuming it comes with the hide.[1][2][3]

Natural leather can vary from hide to hide, and the return policy calls out limitations for it. Before cutting or marking the leather, confirm the grade, size range, thickness, and whether the order can be returned.[2][3][5]

Order planning

Shipping and returns.

United States checkout access

A guest-checkout test on October 16, 2026 accepted a US delivery address and showed Standard Delivery for the test order. That confirms US checkout for that basket only. The available method and cost can still change with the cart and destination.[4]

Import costs remain unresolved

The reviewed pages do not explain who handles duties, customs charges, or brokerage on US orders. Before placing an expensive or time-sensitive order, ask what the final delivered cost may include and which import charges fall to the buyer.[4]

The return window is 30 days, with condition requirements and exclusions for custom and sale items. The policy also covers shipping responsibility and limits that apply to natural leather. Read it before altering a hide or planning a return from the US.[5]
