Maker's Leather Supply

Overview

Vegetable-tanned leather at Maker's Leather Supply

Maker's Leather Supply has a dedicated veg-tan collection covering tooling, carving, bridle, harness, straps, shoulders, panels, and sides. Makers can compare several weights, finishes, and cut sizes through the regular retail catalog.[1]

Prices and ordering options appear on the product listings. The FAQ also confirms that you can buy leather and tools without joining the supplier's school program, so the catalog is open to individual makers shopping for regular project materials.[1][2]

The collection includes straps and belt blanks, panels, single and double shoulders, and full sides. Dimensions, weight, color, price, and availability still vary by listing.[1]

The public listings include natural tooling and carving leather, russet tooling leather, English bridle and harness leather, and veg-tan straps. These are not interchangeable. Compare the intended use and finish on the individual product page before choosing one.[1]

The reviewed pages do not state a sitewide minimum order. Since the product listings show prices and purchasable formats, the smallest available option on a given listing is the practical starting quantity.[1][2]

Service details

Retail access is verified; leather preparation services are not.

What the site clearly offers is regular retail access to leather and tools without school enrollment. The catalog is aimed at makers, but that does not mean custom preparation comes with an online leather order.[1][2]

The reviewed pages do not document splitting, strap cutting, skiving, or custom cutting for online leather orders. If you need an exact thickness or prepared dimension, contact the supplier before ordering and ask whether the piece can be altered.[1][2]

Order planning

Shipping and returns.

United States orders

Maker's Leather Supply publishes estimated US delivery times for standard and expedited shipping after processing. Available methods and the final charge depend on the order and destination, so check the live total for the leather format in your cart.[3]

Continental-US free shipping

Orders of at least $150 qualify for free shipping in the continental US, according to the policy, but machines are excluded. Check the basket and destination rather than assuming the offer applies to every product or US address.[3]

The shipping page does not spell out service to Alaska, Hawaii, APO/FPO addresses, US territories, or international destinations. If the order falls outside the documented continental-US offer, confirm that the supplier can ship there and ask what it will cost.[3]

Customers pay return shipping, and the original shipping charge is not refundable. The shipping page does not say which leather qualifies for return, so check the separate return terms before cutting or altering anything.[3]
