What is bridle leather?
Bridle Leather refers to the way a cow hide is finished at the tannery. Bridle leather has both the Flesh (Back) and Grain (Top) side of the leather stuffed with greases and finished with wax for protection from water and outside wear. This is generally a labor intensive process, making it expensive!
Bridle leather is traditionally used for equestrian equipment such as bridles, halters, and harnesses.
What does 10-11 oz. Mean?
Ounces is the form of measurement used to gauge the thickness of leather. It refers to how many ounces the leather weighs per square foot. This equates to about 5/32's thick for 10-11 oz leather. That's a good belt!
