Types Of Leather

Elite Leather Creations work with the following types of leather:

Cow Leather – Cow leather is the most commonly used leather within the glove industry due to its plentiful availability. The United States and Australia produce the majority of these hides. The advantages include comfort, durability, excellent abrasion and breathability. Chrome tanning of this leather provides greater wear and heat resistance.

Goat Leather – Independent tests have proven goat leather to be a stronger and more durable leather. The natural lanolin produced by goats helps to create the softest, most abrasion-resistant products. This leather is highly recommended for applications requiring tactile sensitivity.

Cuts Of Leather

• Grain – Grain leather is the smooth external side of the hide. This type of leather provides durability and dexterity

•Split – Split leather is the rougher internal side of the hide. The three different types of split leather are side, shoulder or belly splits.
o Side Split – comes from the rib area of the animal. This part of the leather is more durable and provides the greatest protection because of its greater density of fibres.
o Shoulder Split – is more economical than the side, but less durable. The additional movement in this shoulder area creates fewer fibres and a more visible texture difference.
o Belly Split – is the most economical; however, it has the least consistency of texture and appearance.
