S.B. Foot Tanning Company has been producing quality leathers since 1872. Many of the leathers they produce are for footwear and accessories. There is a good chance you have carried or worn some of their leather in your lifetime.
We stock second grade hides as they become available at the tannery. With high quality standards in place these can be sorted out for a number of reasons. Whether it be a color defect, waterproofing issue or a brand, these leathers maintain their strength and have a lot of cutting available. You may just need to cut around a thing or two. TR Grade is also an option if you need higher quality and cutting yield out of your sides. For TR orders please contact us with any inquiries. Feel free to give us a call or email with any questions.
