Product Description
Elevate your leathercraft projects with our exclusive Horween Dublin Type Charcoal leather. This sophisticated 4-5oz offering brings understated elegance and premium quality to any creation, with its distinctive very dark gray coloration that appears almost black in certain lighting conditions.

Unlike traditional Dublin leather known for its significant pull-up effect, this Charcoal variant features minimal pull-up characteristics, resulting in a more consistent and refined appearance. This subtle quality makes it perfect for professional items and elegant accessories where a more uniform finish is desired.

At 4-5oz thickness (1.6-2.0mm), this leather hits the sweet spot for versatility. It offers enough substance for structure and durability while maintaining the workability needed for detailed craftsmanship. The moderate temper provides excellent form retention while allowing for comfortable breaking-in with use.

Leathercrafters will appreciate the premium cutting and stitching properties of this Dublin Type leather. It responds beautifully to edge finishing techniques, resulting in clean, professional edges. The natural grain takes stamping and embossing well, allowing for personalization and branding of your finished pieces.

Each hide features the natural variations and character that authenticate genuine full-grain leather. The Charcoal color provides a sophisticated alternative to traditional black leather, with subtle depth that adds interest without overwhelming your design.
