Also if you could answer me a question how many millimeters thickness, is good quality that I should be looking for? I'm searching for a full-on sturdy heavyweight thickness, and I keep seeing 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 sometimes up to 1.5mm. is there a standard of light-duty, medium duty and heavy duty thicknesses? I would appreciate any kind of information. Thank you I love your video and thanks so much for all the useful information!

My skills are improving but I'm not ready for those projects yet.

    Had a top grain leather bikers skull cap from H-D Motorclothes. Purchased it in 1996 or 1997. This piece of H-D apparel was rugged and had a heavy duty feel to it and really strong stitching too. It included the leather bands that tied around/over the rear neck flap or duck-tale and I could pull the bands extremely tight if needed when securing it(without ever having to worry about ripping or breaking either of the leather tie bands) to make sure no gust of wind could get underneath and blow it off my head while riding. Spent years training this skull cap to my head and after owning it for 20+ years, I accidentally lost it. Now, this skull cap only cost me about $20.00 back in 1997 but unfortunately H-D Motorclothes discontinued the item and I have searched and searched and searched and am still searching (4-5 years now) but haven't been able to find another leather skull cap that was even close to what I had and still want. I figured I would ask just for the hell of it, is there anything you can tell me that would help me either find a place or person that will custom make me a top grain rugged heavy duty (including extra / strong stitching in the ties) skull cap ... I've recently come across 1 or 2 that look like they might be close to what I'm looking for but I worry that the 2nd or 3rd time I go to tie the bands behind my head that one of them will rip or just break like and old shoe lace.......lol hell of a story for a skull cap huh? Lol Would greatly appreciate any help or advice or info you could share regarding finding someone to make it for me or where I might find something like I've described here....most leather skull caps found in shops are nothing more than frilly almost bandana like and cheap Thanks agian Billy

    I think that if they sell the "top grain", they sell the thin very top layer too. So if the top grain is not just right the top and should be called 2nd layer, what is the name for the very top layer that has been splitter and that can no more be a full grain?

    You said you'd tell us what grade of leather we might be purchasing but you didn't allude to what that label might be called. You spoke of top grade & full grain & briefly explained it. What I'd like to know is what you call both of those in a retail situation, if you're not labelling them with 'genuine leather'? And what each product looks like as a comparison, visually? I recall you saying what you use each grade for, I.e. bags, wallets, etc. So is there a thickness difference with each top grade & full grade/grain? Thx in advance Belinda

    To be honest the temper and thickness of the leather has nothing to do with whether it is full or top grain. The top grain has a "corrected" "full grain" surface. Which means that scars, insect bites and such are removed in a top grain leather. At the same time a top grain can be used to stamp an artificial grain or some other type of pattern. The grain has nothing to do with the thickness of the leather although the grain can be a tiny tiny bit thinner, we are talking 0.001mm - 0.01mm . However the bulk of the leather thickness is made up by the suede part beneath the grain, i.e the flesh side. Which makes it fully possible to just remove the bulk of the thickness and still be able to work with 0.8-1.0mm full grain leather. The temper of leather is a combination of which tanning process the leather has gone through *and* it's thickness. Again.. it has nothing to do with the quality of the grain // Leatherworker

    Remember , this is the leather type,..not the tannage. Vegetable tanned leather that is ALSO full grain is the most premium one can buy for strength and characteristics. Most full grain leather in the market is 'chrome tanned' which takes on different characteristics. Chrome tanned is when a tannery strips out all the natural color, fat and oils then adds chemicals to tan a hide faster. It makes the hide gray in color. They then 'hot stuff or liquor' a leather afterward with fats, oils and waxes after dyeing it. You can feel a leather has been artificially hot stuffed because it has a fatty, almost spongy quality. Chrome tanned leather looks it's best on day one,..then degrades from there. Vegetable tanned leather looks amazing on day one, then takes on characteristics of use (patina) over time that makes each item unique in wear and color. Avoid Genuine leather (because all that means is that it comes from an animal. Could be a rat.) Avoid Bonded leather because it's the 'particle board' of the leather world. One tends to encounter it in cheap office furniture. Cheers 🍺👍
