About Metallic Foil Plonge Cow Leather
Metallic Foil Plongé Cow Leather combines the strength of full grain cowhide with a lightweight, soft temper suitable for apparel and fashion applications. Each chrome-tanned cowhide side averages 20–27 square feet and measures approximately 0.8–1 mm (2 oz.) thick. A smooth foil finish gives the surface a reflective metallic appearance while maintaining the flexibility needed for garments, bags, and constructed pieces.
Available in seven colors, this metallic cow leather is well suited for pants, jackets and other apparel, hobo bags, costumes, accessories, and decorative accents. The relatively large cutting area helps reduce seams in garment and bag production, while the thin weight and pliable hand provide easier draping and movement than heavier cowhide leathers.
Please Note
Leather is a natural product. We strive to keep new lots within size, color, and quality tolerance, but some hides may have slight variations in size or color, or have natural imperfections such as scars or small holes.
Hide sizes may vary. Leather square footage isn’t measured as a true length-by-width area — it’s based on the hide’s surface area before finishing or shrinkage. Tanneries calculate footage from the raw hide stage and stamp the size on the flesh (back) side of the hide. We use the measurements provided by the tannery, but some variation in actual size is normal.
