    That's fantastic -- I hadn't seen that before! And I don't think it's too bad -- they say $200AUS per meter off the roll -- but their minimum is just 10cm -- so I think they're saying you could get a 10cm cut for $20AUS, and that's almost wide enough for 2 belts (at, what 5.8cm for a 2.25" width). And that 1.45M length should be enough for a good sized belt -- that's, what, 57inches in length? If that's the case, that's roughly 20-some-odd bucks for two belts-worth of material...which is incredible!

    Do you know which types you got samples of? Looks like they have several varieties.

    Cool stuff -- thanks for the suggestion!!

It looks like real leather, feels like real leather, and has outlasted any real leather item I've had. The company sells their material. We got some scrap samples for my fiancee's jewelry business to replace real leather straps, and I can say it's high quality stuff. http://www.veganwares.com/microfibre.htm It's pricey, but I haven't searched real leather sheets to compare.

    The only problem i see with this is the thickness...only at .1 inches, so you'd have to double it to make it thick enough.

    It's not a sample of this specific vendor, but its made from 'vegan leather' in brown, not bad at all, and for the price?
