The Lamport Shoulder is one of our best-selling leathers, valued for its consistent quality, rich colouring, and versatility. Each hide is vegetable tanned and beautifully finished with a subtle aniline surface that highlights the natural growth and character of the grain.
Unlike unfinished hides, Lamport Shoulders are ready-coloured on both sides, meaning you can start crafting immediately without the need for additional staining or dyeing. The leather has a slightly waxy feel, giving your finished products a premium touch and added durability.
Thanks to its full grain strength and clean finish, Lamport is perfect for both decorative and practical applications. It can also be moulded and embossed with ease, making it a go-to leather for makers who need both performance and style.
