Single Butt Leather for Belt Making

Shop durable Single Butt Leather selected predominantly for making belts, straps and other heavy-duty leather goods. Cut from the firm rear section of the hide, single butts provide the strength, thickness and usable length required for dependable leather belts and structured leathercraft projects.

Our selection may include both full vegetable-tanned leather and chrome-tanned leather. Vegetable-tanned single butts are particularly suitable for traditional belt making, tooling, stamping, carving, dyeing and edge finishing. Chrome-tanned single butts may offer greater flexibility and are available in a selection of finished colours and surface treatments.

Thickness and Approximate Size

Single butt leather in this category generally ranges from approximately 3–3.5mm thick, with individual pieces typically measuring around 9–11 sq ft. Exact thickness, size, colour, tannage and finish can vary between products, so please check the individual product description before ordering.

Suitable for Belts and Heavy Leathercraft

Single leather butts are used predominantly for belts, but they may also be suitable for straps, cases, tool holders, structured satchels and heavy-duty handbags. Their firm structure makes them a practical option when strength, durability and shape retention are important.

Natural grain, scars, markings and tonal variation may be present and form part of the character of genuine leather. Shop Single Butt Leather online from Mac-Lace Leather, with Australia-wide delivery, or visit our Capalaba store for assistance choosing the right leather for your project.
