leather weight: lightweight options such as lambskins are perfect for the top of bags and for travel, medium weight is suitable for both lined and unlined bags, with heavyweight being
the best option for tote styles and the base of designs.
finish: the surface look of the leather
drape: normally in direct relation to the weight of the leather, lightweight resulting in a softer drape.
availability: very limited leathers are reserved for custom designs, and strong availability of leathers will move into options on website items.
