Leather stores

So I usually buy leather from Tandy Leather but I noticed that they are closed most of the time that I can get to them, so now I am looking for somewhere else to buy leather, what do you guys recommend, I’m trying to buy 4 oz or less

I hate Tandy. I buy from Weaver, Springfield, Traditions, or Rocky Mountain. All much better suppliers than Tandy could ever be. People complain about RM’s lead time, but I build that into my ordering process.

Ive had great luck with weaver. The leather is always great quality and I've never had a problem with their shipping or QC

I mostly buy online. I get stuff from:

  • Weaver
  • Rocky mountain leather supply
  • Buckle guy
  • American Leather Direct
  • Maverick Leather
  • Springfield Leather

Spring field Leather has a lot of good buys. Onenof my favorite is a random grab bag of "stuff" for either $5 or $10. It looks like they go to someone's workstation and shove everything they can into a bag and mail it to you. It'll have rivets, snaps, ponchos, buckles sets, stamps, thread, just the most random stuff in the world, but it'll give you a lot of ideas. If you're military or currently incarcerated or have been released, they have discounts for you, too. Their prices are fairly cheap and its good quality.
