Soho Economy Hide Lipstick 1.6-1.8mm
Bright red, softly milled leather with a delicate goat grain texture and slightly cloudy appearance. Soho is ideal for making soft, slouchy bags and small leather goods with an antique and distinctive two tone finish. Pittards leather hides are sold as sides where the leather hide is split in half down the backbone; this product has a thickness of 1.6-1.8mm. Being a natural product, the leather will have some marks, natural defects and small holes. Our hides are graded to reflect the occurrence of natural blemishes. Pittards Economy leathers are ideally suited for cutting patterns with small panels due to a higher number of imperfections on the surface.

returns
It is the responsibility of the buyer to ensure the leather is right for the job before cutting. Skins cannot be returned once they have been cut.
colour
The reproduction of colours is as accurate as photographic and publishing processes will allow. Colours shown on your screen may not be a true indication of shade. If in doubt, please ask for a cutting.
colour fastness
Please note that colour fastness varies between colours and leathers. It is advisable to test the level of colour fastness of the leather you are intending to use in order to ensure it is suitable for its end use as Pittards cannot accept any liability for colour transfer onto other materials.
Made by Pittards
Pittards is unique in that it makes its collections in-house from start to finish. Our made in the UK leathergoods are designed and made at the same Somerset HQ that makes the leather. Our glove collections are made in Ethiopia, where we first make the leather, before cutting and stitching the gloves in our own facilities in Addis Ababa
