- Kevin is here to talk about cutting leather! Tune in to learn how we cut leather, and why.
We hope you'll forgive the less than perfect audio, we are still working on getting the studio up and running!
I have been watching y'all for the past several weeks and love the content and the information ...Thank you
Thank you! We appreciate you giving us your time! 😄
Heather........sup?
Just placed an order for two 5sft Xcel hides
and this is why I buy whole sides and make my own scraps
Learned a whole lot
Excited about placing my order can't wait until Monday I'm glad I decided to watch the video you guys are freaking awesome
Makes (again, like everything we learn here) A LOT of sense. Thanks guys!
I was told that the footage number on a side of leather is measured by computer, isn't it? Some hide shapes are better value than others. Looking at a hide in real life, you can tell if your project will fit; you explain this really well.
I love buying my leather by the foot from yall. It's always been what I expected and great quality. I'm a small leather business and cant really afford to buy whole hides at this time.
I'm strictly a small time leather hobbyist and buy from Springfield on a fairly regular basis. I've never been disappointed in any piece of leather Springfield has sent me.
Hey Brother Kevin, So nice to see you put out another video..... “BE COURAGEOUS”!
Wow, nice to see you guys again. It's been a while.
It has been! We are back. :)
I never had any issues and for what I make, belts, I buy double shoulders that are a minimum of 62 inches wide at a shoulder's widest spot and you guys pick them out for me. I also bought some Hermann Oak half shoulders on sale and you didn't charge me extra to split it to 3-4 oz for wallets. I don't usually make wallets, but get requests for them from time to time.
First off glad yall are making videos again. Secondly, I'm happy happy yall sell by the square foot. As a small business just starting out I'm able to try out many different leathers without commiting to a whole hide.
Which is exactly why Kevin had the great idea of selling it this way! So glad you agree. :)
Thank you Kevin and Heather🤗
Since I have become a SLC customer, I have been extremely happy with every purchase. So whomever is cutting my pieces, I love the amount I am getting for my money.
My only complaint is cheaper double shoulders in both single and double pieces. 😉
We are so happy you've enjoyed your purchases. Thank you for ordering. :) We'll see what we can do about cheaper prices on double shoulders.
@@SpringfieldLeather thank you. My local store is Tandy - Columbus Ohio. Lately I've noticed a change in personality of the seasoned staff, so I started to look for other sources. They claim to like Veterans but I noticed when I enter no one approaches me to make me feel welcome. They have their favorites that they play up to. Considering I have spent thousands since my first purchase in July of 2018, I noticed I'm lucky if I get a hello.
So when they are the only ones selling craftsmen Vegas tan in double shoulders 4-6 oz for $39.99 or 7-9 oz for $44.99, decent quality (no blemishes or holes), I wish I could find someone else with a cheaper price or a good price & free shipping.
Thank you for your time sir.🤐

I've always had good luck buying small chunks of leather, especially when I'm trying out new (to me) types. Also, I find that sending an email for specific needs saves major grief for both of us! Buying 5 to 10 ft at a time helps my bank account at this point of my business, s THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
You are so welcome!
I am voting for GMO square cows.
axe609; LOL
Thank you very much Kevin! That great insight into the process!!
Thank you for the insight and honesty.... So important for everyone to understand.
JUST SUBSCRIBED THE DOG MADE ME LAUGH!!!!!!!! great information!
Yay!!
Awesome doggy!!
Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the info I now know how to make a better order from now on I'll just order a half or a whole side, and I'll probably call to do so.
that's the sexiest orange sweater... happy Halloween
how can i buy these leathers i like them
How much for all of that.
I prefer to buy the whole side.
ok.
I have ordered almost 30 square feet from you guys... I have never found a piece that I didn't like. I really appreciate what you do and I will absolutely continue to look to you guys first and always when I need quality leather. Are there particular dimensions that are more easy to cut? Like say, 1sqft is awkward every time, but 4sqft is always easy to cut, that kind of thing?
Well thank you!! To answer your questions, it kinda depends on the hide honestly. We suggest customers tell us exactly what they need and then we can adjust to that.
And what is a role of that lady there?
She is a lead in that department and Kevin asked her to join. Then she didn't know what to say.
Is Heather single?
What is the number to call.
Visit our website www.springfieldleather.com. The number is at the bottom.
The guy seems to be over-explaining things...probably not very good at customer service. The girl gives zero benefit to the video. She looks like she doesn't now what she's doing, being in the video.
Thank you for your comments. The guy is the owner of the company...
